About a week mate

I bought it second hand off a guy in Alaska (AstroMart) and for about a grand under new price which i as ecstatic about (but put on GST and shipping and youre at about new price). It is a couple of years old but has hardly been out of the case - tube is absolutely clean - no scratches and optics are pristine. Also included rings, Losmandy D plate and full aperture solar filter - so it was a good buy I think. I just hope the wife doesnt find out what its really worth. It will cost me a fortune inshoes and jewwellry . Rule Number 1 - never let your wife sell your astronomy gear for what she thinks it is worth.

The guys name was Tom Tyler - very obliging so if anyone is dealing with him on astromart I can highly reccommend him.
