Just out of interest qld, which delivery service did you select for your order, and was it a traceable service. I ordered a telescope from OPT a few months back and received it in about 5 days via USPS:

I really think 10 weeks is a ridiculous lead time for sending anything from the US to Australia. See if you can get some tracking information from the sender. Additionally, you could try ringing them rather than emailing to see if you get any better service if email isn't working out.
