Folks,
With the strong S$ and weakening US$, is this a good time to buy quality astro stuff from overseas vendors (those in US)?
Any recommendation for some reliable vendors from your experience?
Thanks for opinions...

Ya there has never been a better time. The US$ is expected to remain weak, so there's no hurry though.
I would recommend OPT. Join as a OPT club member for free and expect to get 1%-2% off the listed price. As a first time customer, you would have to pay via paypal instead of via credit card.
