OK, wife says can not have two scopes with similar performance under one roof, so this one has to go. This is part of an older Celestron SP-C8 package (10+ years). OTA recently sent to Albert Lim of Astro Scientific for optical cleaning and collimation. I can still see some spots on the corrector, but the primary mirror (which is what really matters) looks pristine. The package consists of:
- Celestron C8 8" SCT OTA with Starbright coating
- Piggyback camera bracket
- Super Polaris-type Dovetail (dovetail + clamp combination)
- Celestron 6x30mm finderscope and bracket
- Celestron 1.25" Visual Back
- Lens cap
Price = S$777.00 [firm]
I will throw in a Meade diagonal for $23 and Celestron 26mm silvertop Plossl for $25 if you don't have them yet.
Will bring out the OTA tonight (28 Aug) to Tampines to observe with Weixing. Hope we'll have a clearer sky.

If you don't have a proper mount for this, I might also sell my Unistar heavy deluxe alt-az mount (see my avatar), rated for up to 30lbs - www.universalastronomics.com.
