Hi,

is this still for sale, would you consider packing if courier pickup was at my expense?

Autralia post will not send this scope as it is outside of size handling. Can only accept local buyers. Private courier is way to expensive. Sorry all.

Hi Doug,
Try E-Go couriers..their prices are WAY below other couriers and you can get an instant quote on line. Just enter sizes and weight, and to/from postcodes.
Hope that helps.
Cheers John

I used interparcel to get a complete 8" F6 Dob and its base from sydney to melbourne, 45kg in all.
they got it via tnt road for a very reasonable price.
just need the boxes to be ready for pickup.

Hi Doug, Aussie post has a policy of under 1200mm , I am sure if you removed the dew shield and covered the lense with the cap , and put the shield beside the scope in its box it would be well under 1200mm .
This may help .
Brian.

I agree, more than one way to skin that cat. Look at Brian's suggestion, I'd be looking at removing the dew shield and focuser, package them carefully, and send in a separate box.

Thanks guys. If somebody else shows interest, i will get serious about finding abox for it. I could also take off the focusor, if the buyer was ok at collimation.
