Hi Mark,

I'd be VERY interested to purchase the optics of this scope should you decide to sell them separately.

thanks,
Arief

Not wanting to spam the thread at all but that's a great buy for anyone looking to go from a smaller chinese type dob to a premium quality medium aperture tubed dobsonian with high grade optics.

Cheers,
John B

Hi Arief,

I have someone who has showed some interest in purchasing the entire telescope, though I will certainly get back to you and we can negotiate a price for the optics alone should the sale not transpire.

Kind regards,
Mark.
