Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.
I propose to use "Economy" airmail which is Au$33.38, 6 business days NO TRACKING. The next one up is "Standard" = Au$41.18, 5 business days but INCLUDES tracking. "Tracking" just tells you that it has left point "A" and not where it is until it reaches point "B". OK?
I'm not panicking about re-payment yet but it works out to be Au$68.60 per unit. = Au$63.83 + (Au$33.38 / 7) = Au$68.60 per unit.
OK? Andrew

I have just posted seven scopes to Lou via Economy post. Should be 6 business days ?!? The final cost to me was Au$68.90 per unit (there is a Au$2.00 padded bag added to the above estimate). Cheers, Andrew

Fantastic! I was (almost) beginning to lose faith in our respective mail services . . . I have not checked but those who have not paid might now consider doing so . . . Cheers, Andrew

Andrew,
Yes, the mail is sometimes very slow over the pond. Regular mail is sometimes 3 weeks or more, DHL express is 2 to 4 days but very expensive.
In case you didn't get my email (sometimes they don't go through) I settled up payment for all the scopes via PayPal last night.
Thanks for the new "Toys",
Lou

Hi Guy's, just wanted to let you know that my Two units arrived safely, just waiting for a link to get them paid for.
I haven't tested them yet, I am going to do that today.
I was just checking out their software and was Blowin' Away when I saw that they now support the Rpi .... How Cool is That !!!
I did not know this, it'd been a while since I have checked out their stuff.
Thank you Andrew and Lou for making this happen !!!
