The heading says it all, had a BIIIIG accident with my 10" that has destroyed the tube, so looking for a cheap replacement for use on a temporary basis.

cheers

I have a Celestron C6-N here in Adelaide.

$250

Bought 18 mths ago but I then got a SCT to put on the mount.

Still has all packaging.

Perhaps you know someone here that can check it out for you.

ps Saw your ad, so I finally registered as a member.

Hi Gary

Scope comes with finderscope plus a LightPipe collimation tool.

No tube rings, I still need them.

Receipt is also available.

Or I am willing to sell whole scope & tripod plus stock accessories for $500. Scope was bought as a package, see a site that sells Celestron Advance C6-n (not GoTo/GT).

Scope is black.

Mint condition. All packaging.

Available for viewing anytime.
Available for any interested persons.
