Hi Mark,

I've been advised that this might be a good scope for me (by one of the other forum members)... I tried to PM you but it says I can't.
Just a few questions, I live in Hoppers Crossing, is this anywhere near your travel path?
May I ask why you are selling it?
I currently have an old refractor telescope and have only used my dad's Dob briefly, are there any tips or advice you could give to the use of the scope (or does it come with a manual), as I understand it they are quite easy to use but I also understand that they need to be set up to begin with, is this tricky?
I guess finally, are there any issues with the Dob?
If you can deliver and are happy to do so, what days/times would be workable?
