Astro Telescopes 6-inch (152mm) f/5.9

I need to sell my 6" Achromatic doublet 900mm FL to pay for my cancer medical expenses.

It was originally purchased from Astronomers without Borders from the U.S.
I was going to do visual astronomy when I started but immediately moved to AP instead. This telescope has basically just sat in it's box for several years. Appears to originally be a United Optics manufactured scope.

There is a good review here for it => https://astromart.com/reviews-and-ar...-refractor-ota

I have added a Losmandy Dovetail Plate in addition fpr mountimg options.

I alsomhave a 2" field flattener avalable for the scope.

Unfortunately my cancer has kept me bedridden so I can't manage to get the scope out of it's case to take more pictures. Everything was perfect the last time I used it several years ago.

Local pickup only as the scope in its metal case is very heavy and I can barely walk.

With included case and field flattener $800
