You might want to look at the IIS listings as there is one for sale for $800 however as the current price for a new WO M90 is only $999 I suspect most would go for the brand new OTA.

As a side point - I may be mistaken but the only "real" flourite OTA's available these days are the two small Tak's (FS-60 & Sky90) and one or two of the top of the line Stellavues - otherwise everyone else is pretty much FPL ED glass - which is much cheaper to produce, good for the environment and promoted as being almost as good - but then I wonder why a WO 90mm costs $999 and a Tak 90mm cost close to $3,000 - there has to be some sort of genuine significant difference in the glass/lens to warrant that price difference beyond just quality of mechanical manufacturer etc.
