C14

Hi. Time for an upgrade away from the 11" SCT I reckon so yes, I'm looking for a used C14 from any era. I won't be buying one without seeing star test images. I'll make that plain as day right now. No test images, I don't buy it, simple.

Let me know if anyone wants to drop one off.

Cheers.

I have a C14 from the late 70's. Been in an observatory for a few years . Moved house and has not been much use since. Has equitorial mount. Optics excellent. Sitting in its box now not being used.Orange paint a bit scratched by removing scope to and from tube. Looking around $1,200.00,if you feel it is a fair price and if that is what you want.
