Celestron Nexstar 8i goto scope

Hi folks,

Too many scopes. Way too many. I now need to start letting go of some of my beauties to homes that will use them more than I can.

Celestron Nexstar 8i goto scope in excellent working condition:
* OTA in excellent condition, XLT model
* GPS attachment
* Wedge (haven't even assembled it! - it's the bubblewrapped item in front of the scope)
* Tripod - heavy duty, not the standard model that came with the 8i
* Celestron dew shield
* 25mm & 9.7mm 1.25" plossl eyepieces, 1.25" diagonal & 1.25" correct image diagonal
* Red dot finder
* Long cable to power from car battery (transformer removed from sale as it was deemed unsafe)
* Compass
* Bullseye spirit level
* Complete instruction manuals for scope and wedge assembly.

Red topped containers in the picture hold the various nuts & bolts.
- pick up only (from Maroubra, in Sydney's east) as I don't have suitable crate to ship.

I've found a photo of the Celestron 93658 wedge that comes with this scope. Comes with a latitude adjustment rod for fine latitude control. This is the better quality wedge that allows for the 8i and 8se to be used for astrophoto, along with the heavy duty tripod that is also included.

Scope withdrawn

Sorry folks, I've withdrawn this scope from sale.

Many thanks for your consideration and the PMs about this instrument.

Alex.
