150mm f8 Synta Achro Refractor

6" f8 Refractor in excellent condition. Has a few minor scratches.
Comes with R+P 2" focuser, and vixen dovetail which has quite a few marks from mounts on it. A very good example of an f8. CA is evident on Jupiter and brighter stars but not, to my eyes, visible on Saturn. Great at widefields with a 40mm 68º eyepiece, gives 2.2º of sky.
Bought this scope 3 years ago from DavidU but no longer gets used since I built my 6" f12 Istar refractor.
As is $400, shipping at buyers expense.
PM's please.
