TS Photoline 130mm f7 FPL-53 triplet plus sundry items
I am now looking to sell (reluctantly mind you) my pride and joy TS Photoline 130mm F7 triplet. It is simply put a wonderful scope but needs and alternative projects demand its sale.
It comes kitted up and ready to run as a imaging mount a role it has performed admirably over the last year and a half. Extra's attached include a 2.5inch field flattener with M68 connections. A 2.5inch moonlite focuser with electronic control (hi res stepper motor variety) as well as a Dewbuster precision dew heater controller.
All up new and shipped to Aus it would cost a little over $5k
Looking for $3500 as a complete setup. I am willing to part it out but not separate the scope from the focuser as I no longer have the stock focuser (unless someone just want the OTA).
Prices for seperate parts as followed:
Scope and Focuser - $3000 (new is $4200, $2800 for the scope and $1430 for the focuser)
Flattener - $350 (new is $430)
Dew controller - $250 (new is $350) please note that this particular model has 4 12v constant outlets (i used this to run everything on mount) as apposed the the standard 2.
These scopes are not shipped in a hard case from Teleskop express and I would be shipping in the cardboard box it arrived in but i am happy to buy a hard case for new owner for cost of the case.
