I have a 'spare' C8 OTA (standard starbright coating) for sale. Scope is in excellent condition with a little dust on front corrector lens that can be easily cleaned off. US$480 + actual shipping to Sg, which by surface parcel post will take about a month and cost about US$50. Twice as fast and twice as expensive for airmail. Diagonal and visual back available separately. No bargaining pls.

Wah.....Chee Chien, this is a super good deal, C8 and C5 price!, got some photos or not... ( singlish ). Spoil market, spoil market.

In singapore c8 seconds are traded at least $1100.

Ok here are some pics. Comes with a carrying strap and a camera mount, as well as a dovetail bracket. The aluminium foil is a makeshift dust cover for the lobang where the diagonal usually goes. Ok it also now comes with a FREE 2" visual back so u can use all your standard 2" accessories.

I will throw in a celestron finder bracket and 8x50 finder for US$25, and a TeleVue 2" compression ring visual back for US$32. Or a BEAUTIFUL LNIB WO 2" SCT diagonal for US$120. Me trying to get rid of my accumulated astro stuff...

cheers

Hi CC,

It's very tempting indeed! It's a bargain for those for want to upgrade from 5" like me.

Let me go bank check check first.

How's life back there? Turning cold isn't it?

Cheers!

Yes, somebody buy this scope quick!! Not often you can get a C8 at this price in Sg Included but not shown in the pics is a dovetail bar for mounting the scope. The dovetail bar and clamp alone is worth more than US$50.

And now, get my Burgess binoviewer + pair of Burgess 20mm WA eyepieces for US$170 if bought with this scope. Quick Quick!! Fai te! Mai Tu Liao!!

Email acchien@sbcglobal.net if u wanna buy.

p/s Wu, yup the weather here is turning cold and it sucks... So cloudy I can't even see the full moon. Gotta drive inland to get clear skies.
