I'm selling my travel scope setup, including:
1. A William Optics 80mm Megrez 2 flourite doublet APO refractor in a hard case
2. Televue Telepod tripod
3. 2x Televue eyepieces and 1x Andrews eyepiece
4. Baader UHC filter
5. GSO quartz diagonal
6. Red torch
7. Green laser pointer
8. 2" extender

It hasn't been used for about 4 or 5 years. I simply don't use it since I've had children. It has very high quality optics.

Photos to follow shortly.

Curious - what are all the marks on the main lens?

Have you figured what prices you'd like if you sold the gear individually if you can get an all in sale?

Apparently this ad is not aligned to the ice in space terms. I've decided to let the ebay auction run. If it doesn't sell on ebay, I will re-list here.

I'm not sure what the marks on the lens are. I haven't cleaned / touched the lens in 5 years.

At this stage, I'd rather not separate the items.

Looks like mould on the objective, consistent with being stored for 4 years. It will have a negative impact on resale value - better to clean or get it cleaned and see what the condition of the coatings is.
