Hi,
May be the custom is studying the mount to see whether this is a telescope mount or a mount for portable missile launcher... ha ha ha :P :P :P

Anyway, S$500 is a good buy if the mount is working.

Have a nice day.

Due to the stricter security control in Singapore this coming month, the local Customs are slowly reading the instruction manual and testing out the system first... :P

Hi,
I think (foomt117 will confirm... :P ) he is not the seller... May be he just want to let us know that there is someone selling a vixen refractor in Yahoo!Auction.

Have a nice day.
