Hi All,

I dont know if I want to sell yet but...
Would anyone be interested in my beloved 12" black skywatcher tube and its accessories.

You will receive,
12" Skywatcher OTA 1500mm 12" dia (304mm)
Tube rings to suit which have been modified with recessed bolts to allow the use of Wilcox rings.
Losmandy style dovetail (larger dia)
Wilcox rings, similar to the ones made here http://www.andysshotglass.com/wilcox_rotating_rings.html. Mine use a ribbed tube which is a little harder to turn however is 1000x easier than loosening the tube rings.

As well as all the accessories for the tube such as the 2" to 1.25" adapter, and if required i can fish out of my toolbox the required allan keys and screwdriver for adjustments.

This scope makes a fantastic addition to any heavy duty mount including the EQ6 of which I use it on. I have had many nights of joy with this tube and have seen things that blow your mind, i thought my view with my 6" scope was great, views through the 12" of light sucking power are just phenomenal. I really recommend this as an upgrade if you already have a heavy duty mount.

I still have the original packing box and will supply pictures of how i transported it on the supercheap auto red trolly, the foam has tape with magnets attached.

It deeply saddens me to see her go but I have to.

IM asking $1750 for everything and somehow I will deliver it to you within sunshine coast to gold coast to toowoomba area and everywhere inbetween. As mentioned I still have the original shipping boxes, it should cost around $100 to ship interstate I believe. I will get dimensions and proper quote for anyone interested.

I accept COD in person and if someone will show me how to put paypal money into my account without losing heaps i will accept paypal as well.

PM or give me a call 0401673479

Paypal only charge approx. 2.5% per transaction if under $5000.

So Paypal fee is $50 for $2000 transaction.

This fee is only charged if money is transferred via credit/debit card. If your paypal is linked to your bank acc't then no charge, I think.

Interesting, thanks for that info.

and Yes i do want to sell her. I am also including any reasonable courier charges, obviously if you live in the middle of no where and the couriers want $300 for shipping then no im not going to cover that but im happy up to around $100 or there abouts.

In short.
12" tube,
Rings,
Wilcox rings
accessories, adapters, tools if required
Reasonable courier delivery costs
in person delivery within Brisbane.

The scope itself is near new and only about 1 year old. it has always been cared for and to my knowledge has no dings or scratches. it has never been kept outside or in a garage. the only time it was out overnight it was covered up to prevent any dew forming.

If you require extra counter weights, although i am hesitant to do this im happy to negotiate this. I will have 2 spare, these suite the EQ6 mount and include the extension bar if you need both.

I wont sell anything separately as i am targeting this as an upgrade for people
