Unitron 60/700 with mount

I have an excellent +++ Unitron 700/60 on it's original alt-az mount with accessories - all in superb, time-capsule-esque condition. Only missing the dewshield cap and finder cap (I made a dew shield cap in similar period plastic). This is the rarer version that doubled as a guidescope. Almost mint condition.

Includes the finder, diagonal, 25 and 12.5 EP's, sun filter, tripod/mount. This is the single-knob focuser type, so no, the other knob is NOT missing or broken off

Optically, INCREDIBLE. RAZOR sharp, excellent contrast, and being f/11.3, I cannot see even a hint of CA even on Sirius. It lives up to the Unitron legend.

Price is $350 POSTED, OR trade me a couple of Takahashi LE EP's - a 12.5 AND either an 18 or 24 (no other EP's considered, including TV)

Here are some images of my Unitron (ignore the cobweb across the objective - all carefully cleaned now) - the Yamamoto CA-60 in the background is NOT available, so don't ask :
