Time to sell my second every telescope!

It has served me well but now that I have upgraded my entire setup this has to go. It is the Celestron 130SLT OTA only.

Condition overall is very good but has a few things (cosmetically).
- Both the primary and secondary mirror are in excellent condition
- One of the focus dials has broken off but have super glued it back
- There is a ring mark on the side which was caused by the OTA's tube ring camera holder, does not effect use

This is pickup only.

I will sell it if I get reasonable offers.

Will post pictures within the next few days.

Pictures added.

Apologies for the blurry photos, the plastic/glass on my mobile camera is cracked.

Comes also with the 2" adapter.

Hope you don't mind me jumping in here Stefan, but i thought prospective buyers might be interested to know that I have one of these OTAs, and with a few modifications they make for an excellent astrograph (see examples here (http://www.astrobin.com/search/?q=rmuhlack%20130slt&search_type=0&camera_type=any&camera_type=0&camera_type=1&camera_type=2&camera_type=3&camera_type=4&camera_type=5&telescope_type=any&telescope_type=0&telescope_type=1&telescope_type=2&telescope_type=3&telescope_type=4&telescope_type=5&telescope_type=6&telescope_type=7&telescope_type=8&telescope_type=9&telescope_type=10&telescope_type=11&telescope_type=12&telescope_type=13&telescope_type=14&telescope_type=15&telescope_type=16&telescope_type=17&telescope_type=18&telescope_type=19&telescope_type=20&telescope_type=21&telescope_type=22&license=0&license=1&license=2&license=3&license=4&license=5&license=6&sort=-uploaded)).

I had to shorten the tube of mine to allow focus with a DSLR, and because I shortened the tube I also had use a slightly larger secondary mirror. My OTA came with a 2 inch crayford focuser from the previous owner, and so to automate focusing I have now fitted a Robofocus motor.
