Hi Seanie
I have purchased from them at least five times in past few months (I've spent over a grand there). I cannot recommend them highly enough-first rate. They gave me a great discount on my hyperion eyepieces as I was a regular customer. Shipping costs are €18 typically by UPS (3 working days). I have used both credit card and paypal.
I have just ordered an adapter to convert my 2" sct diagonal into a regular push fit diagonal. Everywhere else I went tried to sell me a new diagonal. The adapter cost €25!! New diagonal €150. Patrick is very helpful and ofers good advice.

Hi,
I am hoping to take the plunge and buy that dovetail plate I mentioned already, plus a few other bits. Telescope Service operate on orders via e-mail and Paypal. Has anyone used their servcie?

I bought parts off them a good while back, no hassle, I don't think you'd have any problems Seanie.

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.

I made an enquiry about a focuser for the refractor this afternoon, they promptly replied within thirty minutes and I have found them to be nothing but courteous. Buy with confidence.
