Hi,
Specifications:
- 508mm / 2000mm
- 9x50mm finder
- 28mm 2" eyepiece
- Primary and secondary mirror dust covers
- Light shroud
I've attached the promo sheet.
Estimated pricing looks like around 25% - 30% increase over the 18".
So maybe street price of $8K-$9K.
I stress estimate, retailers will set their prices.
