GSO products - delays

Has anyone has any delays in receiving GSO products recently

I have had a Bintel 150mm F6 reflector on order since late November

Latest update is that it’s on the boat so should arrive in the next 2 weeks ( that’s 8 to 10 weeks from order )

Not blaming Bintel as they are a great all round company and I don’t shop anywhere else

Maybe something to do with Xmas / Chinese New Year shut downs etc ?

Appreciate any advice

My new years resolution is to avoid buying astro gear at or around Chrismas. I never want to see the inside of a TNT office again *shudder*

Buy from someone that has it in stock, or has access to stock in a local bonded warehouse, ie Andrews.

Andrews are very good and a good tip is if it isn't in stock go somewhere else because they are always going to say a couple of weeks to stop you going elsewhere ,glend is bang on .
