Hi Chris,
Tasco is the main importer of Sky Watcher products in AU but they do not make them. The SW gear is made in China as SW is part of Synta-the biggest astro gear maker worldwide. They also own Celestron.
The telescopes that are branded with the name Tasco are the small, cheapisch department store telescopes. Those are basically toys. they are small in aperture, have no multicoated lenses (if they are actually glass not plastic) and ride on slim, shaky mounts.
Tasco is an Australian company whose founder recently died.
Hope that helps a bit.
Cheers
