100mm SW f5 + Extras

Hi I need to thin the herd a bit , so here is the first of a few Items I am selling .
100mm Sky watcher black diamond f5 refractor OTA .
Comes with these extras ,
Tube rings ,
Rail's x2 ( one top and one bottom ) and a 150mm long Vixen dove tail .
2 inch diagonal , 2-1/14 adaptor ( brand new ).
2x shorty barlow .
25mm WA Plossl.
15mm SWA .
5mm UWA ( nice eyepiece , similar to my 5mm TV Radian )
7x25mm finder , its a cheapy but it works ok .
Makita plastic case that holds all the above , this works very well and is quite strong .

This scope has very good optics , I was impressed with it .
It holds its own against my 500mm fl SKY90 up to 100x , then the CA is there but its very well suppressed , it excels at 20-100x as a deep sky scope and for this its great .
The moon is very good as well .

One caviet ,, the sticker has been damaged by the tube rings , but that does not matter as they cover the small amount of damage there , see photo .

Price ,, hows about $300 for the lot + post , that's $40 .
Edit , now $400 with the above driven EQ2 mount .
Great starter package .
Keep an eye for other stuff soon .

Brian.
