Yeh it's sad isn't it. I've been waiting over a fortnight now for Celestorns NexImage camera to come from America . Plus now I am waiting for our 10" dob from Bintel, paid for it Wednesday so with any luck I'll have it Monday and also awaiting a Pelican case for our EP's (after reading comments about cases on IIS). For the last week when I walk in the door I ask if any of my presents have come yet .

Well the pelican came this morning to my suprise. I heard the door bell and got all excited thinking it may be the telescope, but no . Then he informs me no chance of getting anything Monday as they don't run Sunday nights, so if I'm lucky Tuesday. Then last night I was surfing and found the camera cheaper then America right here in S.A. Not happy jan

Turns out the guys at Andrews mis spelt my street address. Has been sorted now and should have the telescope in the next couple of days apparently. More waiting.... The suspense is killing me!

Know how you feel Pat. I got my mount and scope from Andrews, and they were a pleasure to deal with. Can't recall exact number of days, but wasn't too long (<7days). Merry early XMAS!
