For sale is my GSO 8" RC OTA.
The 'scope was purchased from another IIS member a few years ago. I've used it sparingly, and we've recently moved from a large house to a smaller one, so I'm starting to clear out some gear that gets used less. The Wife Has Spoken... :rolleyes:
Specs:
200mm (8") diameter
1624 focal length
f8
Dual speed Crayford Focuser (loose on one side, see below)
Focal extender rings (50mm & 25mm)
One of the caps for the focuser is loose and keeps coming off. However the optics are in great condition, if in need of collimation.
(The mount is not included as part of the sale).
Price:
Asking $650.00 ono (plus postage if necessary).
Note: I'm located in Bathurst, and this item is bulky. It would cost a great deal to post, but I'm willing to do so if you're far away. To facilitate pickup, I'm happy to work out a mutually convenient time to hand the 'scope over, and will travel as far east as Springwood in the Blue Mountains / to Oberon / west to Orange or Cowra / north part of the way towards Mudgee / south part of the way towards Canberra, within reason.
Please PM me if interested.
