EDIT: As I am on the Northern Beaches of Sydney (fun times), if anyone is keen I can organise for a socially distanced, masked, and non- contact pickup from the garage. Note that myself and my family have all tested negative for Covid and have been locked down in the house since this all started. May need to wait until after 23rd when lockdown lessens though.
Celestron SCT 8" 203mm F10 XLT Starbright OTA plus loads of extras
With great regret I'm selling my setup. I've moved into a house with no sky view (damn trees), and with 2 little kids and their bags, surfboards, games, and everything else I can't fit my scope into the car to take it away on holiday anymore. Not that I have any time to skywatch on holidays anymore anyway.
The old adage of the best scope being the one you will actually use comes into play here, so unfortunately this one's got to go (to be replaced by either my tracking scope on a mount or some other smaller grab and go setup)
Cash on pickup preferred please, from Beacon Hill, Sydney.
