Hi Guys

My BabyQ is up for sale in good condition bah two things.

The first thing is for some reason the focus nob feels tight now,and the second is there is a small scratch on the dew shield. Other than these two things Its in good condition with very good optics!

No visual adapters with this scope,just the Tak extension and T-adapters for imaging but does come with Socal OTA rings.

So my bargain asking price reflects this at $2500.00 pick up only from Sydney area.

Hi Atalas

A very good price for this scope and I'm wondering why this may be

Short q's:

Are you the first owner?
When did the focus knob start developing problems, is it getting worse?
Tube Holder provided?

Thanks

Robert

Hi Robert

Like I said,the price reflects the focuser issues.

No I'm not the first owner.

Last year I sent the focuser to Clement to take measurements to build an adapter so I could use the Clement on the BabyQ.
The focuser come back with this issue from them and Ive only realized the problem recently.

Comes with Socal OTA rings.

Come and have a look at It.

Louie, would you sell the Socal rings separately?

Ok,seems people are worries about the focuser so I'll send It back to Takahashi for repair and then relist at a higher price.
