Maksutov-Cassegrain Reflecting Telescope
90mm Diameter, 1250mm Focal Length
MgF2 Coated & Aluminized Optics
Picked this up from Goodwill several months ago for personal consumption.
I have serious back issues from 2 surgeries and have sold (and selling) the heavier stuff.
See ad for Celestron CG-4 (Local Pickup)
The tube is in excellent condition and the mirror moves smoothly.
I just purchased a Twist Lock Visual Back from Scopestuff for the Orion and of course the threads are different on the 102mm Celestron, so it's installed on the Orion. The original Visual Back is also included.
I briefly tested the 90mm and I didn't notice any issues.
I was in the process of setting up a Celestron SLT mount when I won another auction for a Celestron Astro-Fi with 102mm Mak-Cass.
I decided to keep the Astro-Fi and 102mm Celestron and sell the SLT and 90mm Orion.
The Orion is a nicer scope but 12mm is 12mm.
There is a very light scuff on the corrector where the silver spot is located.
I tried to get a photo but it only appears if you hold it at a certain angle.
I couldn't notice any degradation of the image.
Of course, you're welcome to inspect the scope before purchasing.
I'll bring a diagonal and eyepiece so you can check it out (or you can bring your own).
I'll try to remember to throw a tripod in the truck to make testing easier.
For Local Pickup:
I live in and work from home in Hilliard and could meet after about 4:30pm during the week.
Weekends are open.
Sorry, my transportation situation has just changed and my work vehicle was damaged. I may not be able to get it back on the road, so my meetup possibilities have changed.
I can very likely meet you anywhere public between Hilliard and Callahan to the South and Folkston, GA to the North.
If you wish to have the Scope shipped:
The approximate shipping weight is 5lbs.
Buyer to pay all shipping costs from 32046 or possibly 32257 (my workplace).
My work vehicle was damaged on Friday and it's future is uncertain, so I may be working from home for a while, so likely from 32046 for now.
I can ship my UPS. USPS or Fed Ex (Comes to business every day) if I can get my vehicle back on the road.
Payment for Shipping by Paypal (Goods and Services)
I have this listed on 2 other sites.
I'll respond to the potential buyer in order they are received, in case more than one person is interested.
This isn't my first sale here on Craigslist and I'm aware of all the scams.
