Orion 80ST f/5 OTA

[dhumpie]

I know I am going to regret this so I am just sending feelers out to see if anyone wants my Orion 80ST f/5 achro optical tube assembly. I have done all the necessary mods such as flocking the tube and darkening the lens edges and even replaced the crappy visual back with a Mercury Systems compression ring back ($35USD value) and a Stellarvue Enhanced mirror diagonal ($40USD value). Comes with the standard 6x26 correct image finderscope. I am willing to part with my beloved scope for $280AUD postage included anywhere in Australia. Its just sitting there in a cupboard not getting used since I got my Orion StarBlast dob.

Cheers,
Darren

p/s: I am not going to go lower in price so this is my final price.....

Hi Geoff,

Since the first PM, I have not heard from the other person and will probably wait to hear from him till end of this week so the OTA might still be available. In the meanwhile if you need more photos let me know and I can send you some.

Cheers,
Darren

Okay its crazy I know but I am lowering the price to $265AUD postage included in oz. Going no lower so if it does not sell at this price I will keep the OTA....

[Loupy31]

How long will you be holding it for?

[dhumpie]

Hi all,

Graham has paid me a downpayment for the scope and has promised not to pike so I guess the scope is his. Sorry!
