The next installment in my selloff of most of my astronomy gear is this late model C8. It has Starbright XLT coatings and is Fastar compatible. It has collimation knobs. Also comes with a Celestron 9x50 Right Angle Correct Image finder with a custom made integrated red dot finder, and the original Celestron 1.25 diagonal. Fitted with both a Losmandy and removable Vixen mount dovetails.
The OTA is cosmetically and optically excellent, there are no scratches or dew spots on the corrector and no dents or scratches on the OTA shell. It is a reluctant sale but I have decided to keep only one telescope and my C9.25 is it.
Withdrawing from sale - keeping all my Cassegrain scopes
