Hi Guys, just to keep things clear here:
I work for Ron at Sirius Optics every second Saturday until 1pm. Peter Marples works the alternate Saturday when I'm not there.
We are located in Underwood. The original post concerned the sale of Sirius Optics.
However, there is also a reference in this post now to Star Optics which are located on the Gold Coast and is owned by Lex. Star Optics is about a 50 minute drive south of Sirius Optics. Please don't confuse the two businesses.
I have been a long term customer of both businesses, as well as Bintel in Sydney, over a long time.
Yes, Star Optics is closing its doors. As explained to me the other day when I visited the shop, Lex is closing it in favour of other business activities that occupy his time.
I can say that I have always valued the service and advice (and patience when I cant make up my mind...yeah, that's me, the big kid in the toy shop) that all 3 businesses have offered to me over the years, and it will be a shame to see Star Optics close. I'm sure lots of amateurs will miss the goodies that Lex brought to Astrofest each year.
