12" GSO dob - a Bargain at only $550+ post-SOLD--

[Darkplague]

Due to my soon to arrive 16" mirror,
I have to part with my 12" GSO dob to raise some funds.

This one has all the hard work done to it, flocking , reinforcing etc.
The Dsc's in the photo have been sold, everything else in the picture you get!

Details as follows:

12" GSO dob,
Crayford focuser upgrade
Mirror fan
Fully flocked tube
Lumicon 50mm RA super finder
Box has been heavily strengthened and stiffened from original.
Teflon centre washer installed
Light shroud
Wood handle for movement of tube
assorted new GSO plossl Ep's
Have original shipping box for tube

This one new is $1000 from Andrews, it is the deluxe model.

There is some slight scuff marks on the tube, mainly from transport in the car to dark skies, but nothing a touch up pen wouldnt fix.


I'm looking at around $550 + shipping, If it doesnt sell at this price I will just keep it.

Thanks for looking

Quick and the Dead, Doug!

Ya gotta be fast around this place

keep your eyes open though, with the amount of Lightbridges being bought there's bound to be a flood of solid tube scopes on the market.
