Hi all,
I have a C8 that i am looking to sell as i have recently upgraded. OTA and finder scope only (so no mount, guide scope etc, i can include an old diagonal and a few basic eyepieces i think, will have to see what is there). Also comes with the Celestron 0.63x reducer. In good condition, a few wear and tear marks on the tube and the front glass could do with a clean (i can probably give it a go over the weekend). Great scope for getting good views of the planets as well as using the 0.63x reducer to get some deep space shots (same as this one

I purchased the scope second hand so not exactly sure how old it I would say 10 years, though still in good nic. I am not at home at the moment, so i only have a shot of the complete setup, but over the weekend i will try to upload more of the optics etc.
Everything taken on my instagram (except for the most recent 3 shots) were done using this C8 using a 6D Canon camera and my Celestron AVX mount. I am still learning how to capture and process so go easy on my pics!!!! Ignore the first few deep space ones probably as i was just learning how to process.

Asking $600 for both the OTA and the reducer together. I probably wouldn't consider splitting them up considering whoever buys the OTA will likely want the reducer.
Let me know if interested.
