North Group ED127 Refractor

[gbeal]

One of the ubiquitous "North Group" Refractors, from the equally well known Gilman.
Bought to see if it would replace the twitchy to collimate 8" f4 newt. It could, but won't so I am tossing the idea of selling it. Haven't looked through it, but have taken a couple of images.
Focuser is a pig, as we all know, but certainly useable.
Case has suffered a slight bow to one end, but is very serviceable.
Scope will come as supplied to me, case, rings, with Vixen style rail s, and illuminated finder and bracket, 1.25" eyepiece adaptor. Caps for all.
Shipping won't be cheap, I'd rather sell it within NZ, but we can discuss it anyway.
If interested, shoot me a PM, all discussions off group please.
Picture is with an SXVF-H9 and Ha filter, just to try it.

ok i will bight - whats included? And what price would you be looking for Mr Beal?

Thought you already had one Huff, you making a bino set?
Looking for AU$1300 plus whatever the shipping works out to be.
Bought it with the now less than original case, and the 8x50 illuminated finder, rings, and Vixen style rail. It has what I believe is the "advanced" focuser. Gary

so the losmandy bar and guiderail is included as in the photo?

No David, sorry. If you look hard they are ADM, great stuff, but stuff that stays with me unfortunately. I have just settled on the ADM D series for all the scopes, with the ADM Vixen style for the upper side, allowing me to use the one guide-scope on any of the fitted scopes.
I have edited the description to state this more clearly, and apologize for the ambiguity.
