Hi all
As I've been caught by aperture fever, I'm in the process of upgrading my scope to a large dob. I'm therefore reluctantly selling my Celestron 10 inch C10 NGT scope together with CG5 mount, full go to, 9x50 finderscope, 20mm Celestron Plossl and accompanying manuals. The telescope was bought only three months ago and has had very light use. The handset firmware includes Celestron All Star Polar Alignment.
I'm asking
$1,800 or nearest offer for the scope which is quite a bit less than the current price new. The cheapest I've seen new recently is $2,500 at Andrews and $3,700 from OzScopes. I'm in Perth WA so pickup would be great. Otherwise, I can arrange for the scope to be professionally packaged and shipped for you.
