Meade ETX90 repairs

I have a Meade ETX90, went to use it on the weekend and found the dot finder broken off from the scope. The finder appears to be part of the scopes tracking. I went to the web sight I purchased from on the Gold Coast only to find out that they have closed. I an wondering if some one knows where I can get this repaired?

Gday Geoff

Probably the best bet for repair is BINTEL in Sydney,
however, the red dot is not required for scope operation.
If it is really an LNT unit ( ie it also has the level and north sensors )
then you will not be able to do full automatic aligns,
but if you know a few bright stars, you can still do a manual 2 star align and the scope should work perfectly well.
