No, which narrows it down to just one other Sydney based supplier... no surprised for guessing who....

At the time both had the scope at the same price and neither had any stock (I suspect probably both waiting on a shared shipment???... but only suspect...) so I ordered from the people I knew better and had been happy buying from before (though I am sure both stores are good).... and who were also more open about the scopes faults.... astro-optical didnt want to admit to the scope having any problems out of the box (which on reading forums is not quite true).
