With my Takahashi FSQ106, I no longer need ANY other scope, so am selling this recently acquired ED80 to help afford some Tak bits.
This is a Skywatcher Black Diamond ED80 APOCHROMAT with the dual speed crayford focuser. I disliked Skywatcher's colour scheme, so I replicated a Takahashi scheme on it - I think it looks much smarter, but opinions vary.
What you get: Scope in immaculate condition (lens group is flawless), Skywatcher diagonal, rings and bar. There is no finderscope, but can include the bracket if required (I purchased it WITHOUT finder, eyepiece etc).
I will
include an Orion 0.8x focal reducer with it ($149 value). (

There is NO CARRY CASE - I need this for my FSQ sorry.
Cost will be
$500 POSTED (it cost me $650, and then I also bought the focal reducer) - this is DIRT CHEAP for this scope with all the bits included!!!
