Default Staunton Chess sets

Hey guys,

I've been trying to find a Staunton Chess set sellers located in australia for the past few days but have been unsuccessful. I've come accross a few us companies but i'm affraid that it may get damaged during transit.

I have come accross one Australian Website however it doesn't have a contact number or anything, so i think its not very reliable:
Ultimate Staunton

Would any of you guys no where i would be able to get a chess set similar to the one in the link in Australia, idealy from Sydney.

Thanks Guys

That is a bit hit and miss, but if you are patient it can indeed pay off sometimes.

Best Regards,

You surely want to speak with my friend Peter Parr who may have what you are seeking. If you provide me with your contact details by private message then I can pass them on to Peter for you.
