Hi, i'm after a Dob, 8-10", preferably collapsible but not overly fussed, depends on what is on offer & price.
Also after a telrad if anyone is getting rid of theirs.
I need also to replace my flimsy aluminium tripod legs, so after a set of HD stainless legs & mount base, (no mount needed)
OR a HD single pole stand that i can mount my EQ mount & scope onto (200mm F5 newt)

Local Melbourne would be good.
cheers
Alex

Hi mate,

I am looking at upgrading to a 16inch LightBridge but my wife says I will have to sell my current scope to fund it. You might be interested in it. It's not a Dob though.

Skywatcher Explorer 250PX EQ6. It's the exact model as listed below. Comes with eyepieces. Will talk to you in more detail if interested.

Interested in $1600.

I also live in Melbourne so that will make things easier.

Cheers

Peter
