WTS : Newtonian Telescope - Please make offers

Post by bgtelescope »

hi, I have a telescope, which was passed to me. As I do not know how to use it, I wish to sell it. But I can't tell if it is functioning as there is a cover over the viewer, which I do not know how to remove. Also, one of the screws seem to be missing as it is hard to tilt it up. I have photos of the telescope. Got an error msg that "The image file you tried to attach is invalid." If you are interested, pls provide your e-mail address to send you the pics. cheers an

I think you can find the brand and the model on the packaging, right?

This forum only allow about 50kB file size to attached directly. Otherwise, you need to upload the picture to one of the photo hosting website like Flickr then provide/attached the link here.

Hi,
Usually the brand and type is written on the Telescope... eg. Celestron, Meade & etc.
The best way to show image is to store your image in some online photo hosting website, such as Flickr and use the "[img]http_image_link[/img]" tag to show the image.

Welcome to SingAstro and Merry Christmas

Hi bgtelescope. Welcome to the forum.

As per Buy and Sell forum guidelines (viewtopic.php?f=12&t=404), you may want to state a selling price first.

Thanks and Merry Christmas!
