Has finderscope, rings & dovetail so ready to start imaging immediately.

Depending on what brand you want you're looking at $500-$800 for a new one. I'll be selling this one for $300 with old focuser or $400 with a new one. You'd need a coma corrector; I could throw my GSO one in (with appropriate spacing rings) for $120.

PM me if you're interested.
Hi Chris,
Much appreciated. I sent a PM but not sure if it was sent.
Mick
