Vixen Porta II and Celetron Nexstar 8SE #11069

opticsplanet.com sell these cheaper than local.
Every few months they will have sitewide coupon discount ranging from 10 to 13%
For this year 2013 they had FathersDays, MothersDay, Warehouse Relocation, Anniversary, BlackFriday

Do note that they are known to charge your credit card immediately (for international orders) and only after they gathered enough quota they will order from their supplier.
Even their domestic USA customers are annoyed by this but the retailer claims their new warehouse will shorten this wait by keeping more items in-stock.

For the SCT it may be a gamble to ship it internationally as the corrector plate is known to be fragile.

Below are 2 recent examples.

Malaysia

I have noticed on a Malaysian retailer facebook page that their pricing of these imported beginner scopes are around 20% higher than Singapore.
Hope that you online savvy guys can take the opportunity to get your scopes online as the shipping cost from N. America & Europe to Malaysia is similar to Singapore.
