A few people may have heard rumours on the grapevine over the last few weeks, but it's now public knowledge..
Bintel are opening a new store in Melbourne (corner of Burke Road and Clifton Road in Camberwell). Roger Davis (well known to many from the BATSC) and Graham Hardy will be running the store.
I'm sure this is great news for the amateur astronomers living in the Southern part of the country, as they'll have a local store to pick gear up from, and to save on postage from Sydney too!
Congrats to Mike Smith and the Bintel team, and congrats and good luck to Roger Davis and co!
This information was announced in Bintel's November
Night Sky newsletter.
