10" GSO dob.
f/5 (1250mm/250mm)
Great all rounder.
Purchased from Andrews in 2014, has seen regular use, in back yard only.
OTA has been kept indoors when not in use. Normal signs of use (e.g. dust), no damage to the optics I'm aware of.
Similar to the 10" here:

Has knurled secondary screws from Bintel (primary ones already came that way).
2 speed Crayford.
Will include 2 GSO Plossls that came with it: 25mm, 6mm (there was also a 9mm but I gave it away).
Buyer may choose between the red dot finder just visible in the photo or a GSO 8x50 right-angle correct image finder.
EP holder is on the wrong side, my mistake. Fixable but has never annoyed me enough to actually fix it.
Sorry about the photo, this is actually the only one I have of it, and I'm not in the country right now. Pot plants not included (but you
can have the plastic eye patch - one of the best astro accessories out there).
Reason for selling is that I'm in NZ now most of the time and this is a little too big to take on the plane. Plus I have the 8" version here. I will be in the Sydney area later this month so that's when you could have it:
$470 will see it delivered or handed over to you
on 22 or 23 August up to 1h drive from Tahmoor NSW 2573.
$450 pickup in Tahmoor, after 22 August.
PM me please.
Thanks for looking
