LX90 LNT 8" for sale, -SOLD-

I am looking at upgrading my LX90 LNT 8" to something bigger. Since I am going to purchase a new telescope from Bintel Michael has generously offered to check and service/upgrade the firmware as well as demonstrate the operation of my telescope to a new purchaser.

LX90 for sale has following extras:
- Orion dew heater
- Meade balance counter weight.
- bobs knobs
- home made short 7" dew shield made out of hard foam - made well enough so the standard front 8" cover fits on it.
-piggyback camera bracket
- home made 6 lens tray (made from kitchen cutting board) with 3 x 1 1/4 and 3 x 2" machined holes
- home made carry case to accommodate the whole OTA WITH diagonal, the cost of parts here was $200.00
- standard 1 1/4 diagonal (Near new WO dielectric 2" diagonal $220.00 extra)

No eyepieces of any description as I have sold the original 26mm plossl. (thought I will never sell this scope). I have my own collection now and not looking to parting with any of them except perhaps my 9mm plossl that I can include here for free.

The telescope is in perfect working order with no scratches, dents etc. 1 year old.
I have the original box for the OTA but not the tripod.
Pictures on request.

$2500.00 ONO
