meade 10" LX200R OTA with parallax rings and losmandy D plates

ok i bought this thinking it would be my observatory scope only to find out i cant use it with the setup i have.

So for sale is a Meade 10" LX200R OTA with parallax rings and losmandy D plates with bobs knobs (not fitted) and a Starlight Instruments Feathertouch MicroFocuser.

all up there is about $3700 worth of gear,

the price as a package is $2700 and shipping will be extra though prefer a pickup as i don't have any packaging.

There is nothing wrong with the scope - just its owner

what kind of focal reducer was it?I know you cant use standard SCT reducers with RC as they attempt to flatten the field, which of course has already been flattened.

Phillip,

not that it matters as it isnt part of the offered package - it is a celestron 6.3 reducer
