FOR SALE - Meade LXD75 Schmidt-Newtonian 8" OTA

I bought this unit in a large package of gear a couple of months back and it isn't getting any use, and isn't going to be used, as I have other gear that I am used to using. So I am moving it on to someone who will actually use it.

It is in very good & capable condition, I have checked it and tested it, plus also collimated the system and it works perfectly capably. It is a very good telescope. The unit is in as new original condition and suits new buyer.
