This is STRICTLY expressions of interest at this stage - basically putting the feelers out.

CONSIDERING to sell my much loved 1999 Takahashi FS-102 fluorite multi-coated doublet. This is the one I did a complete renovation on - repainted the tube, recut some new dewshield decals etc. It looks brand new, but I did a SATIN paint finish on it (VERY much like AstroPhysics and CFF's pebble style). Optics are IMMACULATE in every sense of the word - I am not lieing when I say this is THE best Tak 102 I have personally looked through - it is stunningly sharp and contrasty. Several Canberran members can attest to that.

Sale will include the OTA, "man hole" dewshield cap, standard focuser and a 2" visual back. Bare bones.

Sale will NOT include finder, rings, dovetail, dual speed focuser add-on (MEF), CAA etc.

Considering a price of circa $1800.

NO TRADES, no low ball offers (low ball means anything less than $1799.99 :) ).

I would consider a package deal with my FC-60 of $3000 all up, postage on me.

Such a lovely scope and lots of love gone into it, what is the reason for letting such a gem go? Surely not to be topped in performance!
