Hi all - I have a Meade 8 inch SCT - its missing the corrector, and both the main mirror and secondary have scratches. (but could be recoated I guess)

I got this as a freebie a while ago - looks like the previous owner smashed the corrector, and attempted to replace it with plate glass. (thats how I got it)

Apart from that, the tube seems to be in reasonable condition. :-) (focuser seems ok, although I detect a slight grittiness sometimes - probably stray bits of glass)

Its of no use to me, so if someone wants to pick it up, feel free! (its going in the bin otherwise)

I am in Mill park, Victoria. (northern burbs of Melbourne)

The address is 3 Hillcrest court.
