It's with very deep regret I am offering my Skywatcher 150x1200 achromatic refractor for sale. It's just too darned large for my "lifestyle" and astronomical needs, sadly.
OK, so here's what you get:
1. OTA - excellent condition, no dents. It WAS the horrible metallic sky blue colour a week ago - I repainted it satin white using automotive paint. Now it looks like a telescope, not a bling fashion accessory.
2. GSO 10:1 2" linear focuser - these are lovely. Only extend back 2", so you may need extenders to fit.
3. Original focuser included with the 3km of drawtube travel
4. Finderscope (also repainted). I am still trying to find a base to suit the GSO focuser, but will include the finderscope regardless. The optical quality of these finderscopes seem better than the newer SW ones, oddly.
5. Diagonal with 1.25" adaptor
6. Original shipping box for this dinosaur :)
No eyepieces (though can include a 28mm Skywatcher 2" eyepiece if you want). NO MOUNT (edited out of the picture)
Price: SOLD PENDING FUNDS
Freight extra... I know Australia Post WON'T take it - it's just a tad longer than 1.05 metres! Pick up preferred of course, but if you want it couriered, go for it.
Funds going towards a Vixen VC200L... :)
