Woaw , that's little money for a LOT !! of scope , I have the Saxon version and it performs very well on all objects .
A lot of scope to mount , but a EQ5 is usable for visual , mine rides very well on its HEQ5 .

Would sit well on my LXD75 or the Bodgie AltAz. Have asked him shipping costs and for a 'thru the scope' photo.

Hi all,

I have been in contact with the owner today, and he has withdrawn it from sale. A shame as I would have been very interested!
