It has a few scratches on the tube of the telescope, is scuffed a bit and it certainly looks well used. The glass at the front looks clear, without scratches. The eye-piece also looks well used, a bit dusty with some tiny scratches. I looked through it a few years ago at Jupiter and Saturn.
I had a look online and the first website I came across was this website but when I researched further, I could not find an Australian re-seller or RRP for the TED0806-01 anywhere, except descriptions of it being a Triplet APO Refractor Telescope and some brand new US pricing.
I don't really have a use for it as I don't have the concrete block, pole and swivel that it sat on and I'm really not that interested so I would like to sell it, but I have no idea of it's 2nd hand value. Can someone please help me with an indication of it's value before I put it on Facebook Marketplace as it looks like I can't sell it on the Classifieds section of this website because I just signed up to make this enquiry.
Thank you!
