WTS: C5+ ota plus accessories

Post by rlow »

The C5+ is unbeatable as the most compact and portable 5" scope, now no longer in production. It is only 2.8kg and 11" in length. It works well as a second (grab-and-go) scope, a beginner's first scope or as a spotting scope.

Currently I am considering to upgrade to a bigger scope, so I will be clearing out these items from my dry cabinets.


For sale:

1. Celestron C5+ ota (f/10, 1250mm focal length) white tube with metal end-cap

2. Short Celestron dovetail base (also 1/4-20" threaded to fit any camera tripod)

3. Convenient integrated carry handle cum camera piggyback mount plate

4. 1.25" visual back

5. Celestron 1.25" diagonal

6. 2 nos. 1.25" eyepieces 18mm, 30mm.

7. Scopetronix red-dot finder & mount base

8. Astro-Zap 5" flexible dew-shield

9. Bob's Knobs installed

The scope is in excellent condition, and this whole lot is going for $550 cash & carry. Interested, pls sms or PM me. Thanks.
