Price reduction: Dark Green VC200L

VERY reluctant sale of my newly acquire RARE green Vixen VC200L. I am only selling it because of some personal issues and wanting to get an EQ6 mount too.

I have collimated it as best I can, and it seems VERY close if not spot on. If it holds that collimation during transit is another question entirely. They usually fare well at holding.

I acquired it without focal reducer, but have since acquired one, so that is included as well. I have adjusted the focuser, and it is now very precise. It comes with a 7 x 30 finder also. I have cleaned the primary and secondary since acquiring it. The integral coma corrector is clean.

All-up price is $1000, which is less than what I paid for it (plus extras). It will be sent in the plastic tub it arrived to me in.

This needs to be a rapid sale, as there are genuine reasons, and I am selling other stuff (not astro) to help out too. A VERY reluctant sale, as this one is a cracker of a scope!!!
