Can't seem to get Amazon to ship it to Singapore though...
Did you ship it to someone in the US and the back here?

Celestron has a long standing rule not to allow their retailers in the US and Canada to ship their items out of the country to protect their distrubutors overseas. Amazon is just following this rule.

mmm...price is the similar as Amazon's. If you really do not want the more secure way of buying locally at a slightly higher price, I think this would be good considering Opt's reasonable good reviews so far...
