Louie, to sweeten your magnificent deal, I am willing to send absolutely free a set of focus knobs for a VC200L - (must be the more recent style though, not the early type with the centre screw, though I MAY still have a set of those somewhere too) to whomever purchases your scope.
The spares I have are plastic ones from an ED81SWT, but they fit the standard new 3mm pinion. They are shaped exactly the same as the aluminium ones.
My offer still stands, BUT, the pinion will need to be replaced (Louie's is the old pinion, mine is the newer one), so the new owner will need to remove the old one and install the new.
Unfortunately, I cannot offer the pinion free, as it cost me money recently, but will let it go for $20 posted, complete with the focuser knobs.
I also have an original Vixen 6x30 finder with green bracket if the buyer interested -$50. Or buy the finder plus the pinion for $60 (only offered to the buyer of this VC200L)
