Orion ED80 F7.5

Hi folks, have my ED80 up for sale.
Included are the 100mm mounting rings and also the original double box (for what it's worth) and user manual.
It's been sitting in a wardrobe for 5 years and haven't used it as my primary imaging scope has been my 10" newt.
Hate to see such a lovely scope not being used.
Although bought in '05 (included is the receipt) it is in pristine condition optically and body wise. Although the thin black rubber grip rings around the focusing knobs didn't last (a standard story from what I've read) has been replaced.
Here's some links to images taken with this scope. These were taken back in '05 so the size of my CCD was rather small thus image size.

Originally bought from Sirius Optics. Scope$695.00 and ring set $49.95.

Am firm on $500.00AUD + postage & registered insured mail.
Australian sale only.
Please don't hesitate to PM me if interested and I can get an accurate postage cost.

All the best
Rich
