Hi All :D

Not again :P Seriously :D

Yes I'm selling my 10" Dob. This scope is only a few months old. It has a Crayford focuser and cooling fan. Also a 8x50 right angle correct image finder.
Also the tube has been full flocked. The mount has been modified a bit.
Its as smooth a dob mount as you will find. One eyepiece 30mm Superview.
Also with the scope a tectron collimating tool set. Site tube, Cheshire and autocollimator. Also a booklet with lots of how too stuff.
Also I will give a very nice star altlas to the person who buys the scope.
Sky Atlas 2000.
So how much, well I'll sell the scope to the person with the best offer over $750.

I will not ship this scope.Sorry.

Pm me for more details and your offer. I would prefer you don't post a offer on this thread.

Cheers.

I'm not sure :confused: That's been my problem over many years. I have out sold Tony 10-1 re scopes :P I can never settle on one scope. :ashamed:

Some may say buy 2 :confused: There couple of scopes I wish I kept. My old Unitron and my Meade AR6, this scope is a lot better than peolpe think. :D

I like pinpoint Stars :D Also I don't Deep Sky observing from home anymore.
I go to my friends place to play with his 18" for that. :thumbsup:

The Dob is very good and so easy to use. So I don't know. I have been looking at 4" Apo's at the moment, as most of my observing at home is the Planets and the Moon, this maybe the best option.

My wife has said no more scopes and if i buy one :fight:

The search continues or not :help2:

Maybe someone can suggest a scope they have thats easy to move, super sharp optics, super on Planets and double stars :confused:
Did I hear someone say buy a 6" Apo. :eyepop:

Well my wife put her foot down :fight: Or on my head.

Not allowed to buy a new scope :(

So I have to keep the 10".

But maybe some good news. After tax time if we(note I said we!!)
Have a few bucks left, I can upgrade the scope :D

I can get some DSC for the scope :2thumbs: If I be good :scared2:

So maybe some Argo Navis DSC would be nice :eyepop:

Sorry for any inconvenience. :)

Moderators, if you wish can move thread to archives. :D
