GSO dob
I've a 12" Bintel (GSO) dob I bought in April. Center spot came with scope. Actually, mine was off center just a smidgeon. Could be just my luck, but if you have the mirror outa the tube, worth checking. I centered it, and added a semi-reflective annular ring to make autocollimator use at night easier....the plain white was a bit tough to see.

agree with AZ motion comment. Eric and I both added Ebony Star to our bases. mine needed additional addition of larger teflon pads to make the motion smoother.
