Most likely this, although it seems to have been down for a while...

[pmlogg]

I've emailed Scopes n' skies twice about this and they said that Astroboot would be starting as a new, separate website.  I've not been able to find it if has reopened.

[Steve Ward]

Not wanting to repeat myself but ....  come the New Year , come the new Astroboot .... 

[BinocularSky]

Really? Where? http://www.scopesnskies.com/AstroBoot just redirects to the Scopes'n'Skies main page

I was merely passing on the information I had ... !

Might it not be a good idea to pick up the phone and ask them directly ...

I haven't seen this mentioned before but the new Astroboot website is now online: http://www.astroboot.co.uk/AstroBoot as before an interesting selection of stuff, some of it very tempting.

Nah, having taken the advice of a stroppy adolescent to whom I used to teach maths, I now have a life and I am loathe to spend what's left of it hanging on the phone for ages ...

Ah. Thanks for that. Just seen 4 items I have been looking for.

Nice to see it back, I had given up on it.

[hobsey]

Never been on there before.

What a great site.

[BinocularSky]

What a great site.

Outwardly, yes. I ordered 4 items; two of them were wrong (a 70mm lens instead of the 80mm I  ordered, and a tacky-placcy hybrid (0.965"-1.25") diagonal instead of the metal 1.25" one I ordered). Anyone can foul up, so we'll see how good they are at fixing the foul-up. Any more on this will be in supplier reviews.

I ordered 3 items on Sunday night and they arrived today. Good packing as it was an awkward package - a 5kg counterweight plus 2 plastic items. Somehow they managed to stop the weight from moving around and smashing the more delicate things.
