Hi everyone,

I have had numerous inquiries and would like to clarify the following:
  • The focuser on this scope is the new, upgraded focuser. Only the very first few scopes had the old focuser design which was changed promptly
  • I still have the original receipt from Bintel where this scope was purchased for peace of mind. Currently Retails for ~$1100.
  • A different supplier in Sydney is selling the scope for ~$1000 which excludes shipping. They estimate $40 to melbourne, which puts it very close to Bintel's price. Given the hassles of returning to Sydney for any issues, it is easier to deal with a local supplier
Even with all this in mind, I will revise my asking price to only $850. This represents about a third off the retail price Given the condition of the items and included goodies (including receipt) I think this a very fair price for such a great scope. Thanks for reading!
