Hi All - Mark here again.:D
Another great item for sale in my endeavour to buy newer and bigger equipment!
I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience with my PST double stack - it gives amazing views:eyepop: for such a small scope.
It was purchased new in 2011 and is in mint condition.
Selling price: $1000 ONO
Includes:
Aluminium hard case with foam cutouts, a perfect way to transport and keep it in great condition
20 plossl eye piece
Due to the size and weight of the case, I would recommend pick up only. I wouldn't suggest postage incase of damage and cost.:shrug:
