Reflector

Hi all.

Before I head off to Andrews/Bintel et al to buy new...I thought I'd place an ad here, in case someone's looking to offload such an item. That way, we both win

I'm looking to buy a scope in the 10-12" range (Newtonian reflector).

Not really looking at a Dob, although not ruling it out. Will probably buy rings at a later date so I can mount on an EQ6. Pretty open to suggestions/offers at this stage, though. Let me know what you've got and how much $$$ you're after.

I'm in Sydney, btw.

Cheers

Offer

I'm putting up for sale a Skywatcher EQ6 pro with a VIXEN R200SS on it, I know it's just a 8", but it's a good one, would you be interested?

Cheers,
Andrea

Hi Andrea,

Thanks for the offer, but it's not what I'm looking for; 10-12", with a leaning toward the larger aperture.

Also not quite the right kind of scope. It's an F4, and from what I can tell is more suited to deep sky imaging. I'm more of a planetary imaging enthisiast.

Cheers and best of luck with the sale.
