SkyWatcher 10-inch Dobsonian Reflector

Telescope was taken off because of a keen potential buyer. He has subsequently changed his mind (without seeing the telescope), so I'm putting the telescope back on for sale.

SkyWatcher 10-inch Dobsonian Reflector - Reduced

Hi

I've reduced the price of the 10-inch Dob to $440. I'm looking to sell it to someone in the Sydney Metropolitan Region. The telescope is new and has hardly been used.

This scope is a steal at the price.

I have one of these scopes and the optics is brilliant. Out of all the scopes I've onwed incl 8 and 12" GSO Dobs, the 10" Saxon easily produces the sharpest images. Should add though that my experience with this make and model of scope is limited to a sample of one.

Gee it is a wonder that this hasn't been snapped up yet, what a price, if someone was in the market for one of these.
