Celestron 130 SLT OTA ***PHOTOS ADDED***

Time to sell my second every telescope!

It has served me well but now that I have upgraded my entire setup this has to go. It is the Celestron 130SLT OTA only.

Condition overall is very good but has a few things (cosmetically).
- Both the primary and secondary mirror are in excellent condition
- One of the focus dials has broken off but have super glued it back
- There is a ring mark on the side which was caused by the OTA's tube ring camera holder, does not effect use

This is pickup only.

I will sell it if I get reasonable offers.

Will post pictures within the next few days.

Pictures added.

Apologies for the blurry photos, the plastic/glass on my mobile camera is cracked.

Comes also with the 2" adapter.

Hope you don't mind me jumping in here Stefan, but i thought prospective buyers might be interested to know that I have one of these OTAs, and with a few modifications they make for an excellent astrograph (see examples here).

I had to shorten the tube of mine to allow focus with a DSLR, and because I shortened the tube I also had use a slightly larger secondary mirror. My OTA came with a 2 inch crayford focuser from the previous owner, and so to automate focusing I have now fitted a Robofocus motor.
