Dropped the price to $850. I have gone insane obviously.

I will NOT drop it further, and that price does NOT include postage. I won't accept offers on it, but will accept trades - like a Takahashi FS60CSV...

Generic picture - difference is focuser knobs, dovetail bar (mine is LONGER) and no carry strap.

Blow it - not reducing the price any further, so I am withdrawing it from sale.

Love the scope, just wanted to get a Tak FS60. No worries, I'll just keep using the R200SS alongside the FL102 - time to get a SXS saddle.

Stand your ground. That is a good price for a great imaging scope.

All the best

Lars, I am going to keep it - it is just too darned good. 20 years old and will hold perfect collimation seemingly indefinitely and the mirror looks like going another 10 years easily.

Checked some initial shots I did with it - razor sharp, flat across the entire field (using the Vixen flattener of course), FULL of colour and clarity.

Superlative reflector. Not going anywhere anymore.
