We all have our personal preferences re. astro retailers.
I bought my first decent scope from Andrews Communications.
www.andrewscom.com.au
10" - $599
12" - $799
shipping to Brissie is usually around $70. They throw in a couple of eye pieces for that too. But I recommend you order a 2x barlow when you order the scope. That way you can get up close to to planets and moon.
wow, so cheap. I'm definitely going to have to buy myself another big scope.
