Skywatcher Black Diamond 150 f5 Newt OTA : PRICE DROP

[DJ N]

Simply have too many scopes sitting around.....

Skywatcher Black Diamond 150mm f5 Newtonian OTA

Included are the following accessories....

- 6x30 finder scope
- tube rings and vixen style dovetail plate
- 1.25" and 2" eyepiece adapters
- 28mm 2" eyepiece

I have fully flocked the interior of the OTA tube with adhesive backed black felt......very dark indeed!!

The scope is in excellent condition. These currently retail for $299 at Andrews.

I am looking for $200 .......... I would prefer pickup (metro Adelaide), but if you are willing to organise transport/courier, I do have the original packaging.

Cheers,

Daniel

Hi Daniel.
Just a heads up on shipping. Try e-go.com.au
I have used them a few times of late and u will find it easy to use on line to arrange and get quotes and the shipping time from NSW to Tas was 3days. I was impressed. They are an online brokerage and use Roadrunner etc. for door to door / depot to depot or combinations thereof.
While I am here can u give me a heads up on weight with tube rings diagonal and finder please. I'm having thoughts...

Cheers

Hi Trevor,

I will weigh it tonight (I did weigh it but the figure escapes me). But I do reckon it was around the 5kg mark. I am/was using it with a Skywatcher AZ4 mount. I will also weigh the packaging.


Cheers,

Daniel

Hi,
Before I sold my 150P I had it weighed in its original packaging at the post office and it came to 7.8kg. Hope this helps :)

The packaging/carton is 350 x 400 x 800 and the total weight (including scope etc) is 8kg.


The scope itself including finderscope, rings and dovetail is 6kg


Hope this helps.

Price Drop : $200

Also, in case anyone was wondering, the OTA does come to focus with a CCD without requiring any mods to the OTA (at least with a QHY8L it does)....
