Brand New Celestron 9.25" XLT OTA

[mitch]

Hi All,

I've decided to sell my Celestron 9.25" XLT OTA which was just replaced under warranty. I no longer have the space and it's difficult to lift after back surgery.
As mentioned it's brand new (never been used) and has a feather touch focuser which was installed by Bintel.

The items included are:
- CGEM 925 OTA (comes with original focuser as well)
- Feather touch focuser
- Dew Shield
- Bahtinov Mask
- 1.25" diagonal
- 25mm Plossl
- Bintel 0.5x focal reducer
- Bintel SCT 2" adapter

Price: $1800 negotiable. Pick up Welcome

Hi Mitch, just curious what the warranty issue was with the original scope?

[mitch]

The previous scope's secondary housing wasn't completely centred (It was fine for visual and prime focus imaging, but with a Hyperstar it showed some misalignment) It appeared to be easier to replace the scope rather than fix it during its warranty period.

They have a two year warranty, I assume that even though the scope is new they are not providing a new 2 year warranty only up to the previous warranty, how old was the scope when replaced, I want to know this so I know how much warranty is left on this scope.

I bought it in august 2011 and it was replaced in February 2012. So it still has more than a year left in warranty

I have dropped the price to $1600

Hi, I am very interested in this scope. I am assuming it has the CGEM dovetail attached to the tube, is this correct?

Also what suburb in Sydney would I have to drive to in order to pick it up?

Have you (or has someone else) checked the optical performance since having the tube replaced under warranty?

David.
