Telescope/Binocular Auction

Not sure if this should be in the For Sale thread, if so, perhaps an administrator can move it?

Browsing the computer items for sale over at Grays Online, I noticed this auction for telescopes and binoculars. No info as to brand/quality.

They're "Precision" Brand scopes and bits n pieces....the biggest is an 8" scope (reflector....looks like an F/4 scope), going for a minimum bid of $459

Check out this Precision 6" refractor...going for $949...

I like the 8" newt .."for hunters & star gazers alike" comes with sun filter.
how cool is that!
always wanted to mount an 8" newt on the top of my ruger .270 and pop bunnies during the day time safely in the knowledge I won't damage my eyes

With an 8 inch newt mounted, you probably wont damage the bunnies either
