MWTS: Celestron C6R *SOLD*

Post by jermng »

Thinking of selling my 6" Celestron refractor. Typical refractor views - pin point stars and happening planetary views. Chromatic Abberation is effectively subdued by a Minus Violet filter.

The ONLY reason I'm selling it is cos I don't have a tracking mount stable enough for it now and it's hard for me to justify keeping it unused for another 6mths-1 year before I get a beefier mount.

I will include an EQ-5 clone mount+tripod with it. The C6R works with it when using to view star clusters and DSOs using low-med power, but high power viewing requires a more substantial mount. (HEQ-5 minimum or EQ-6 recommended)

OTA only + "free" mount: $600.

Comes with misc accesories like 9x50 meade finder, sunday bag for the OTA etc.

*That's the price I bought it used about 2 months ago but only got to use the OTA twice in total due to weather. I dont want to lose money on this, and I think $600 is a fair price for a 6" refractor.

If the scope doesn't go, I'll just keep it and use it in Alt-Az mode for low-med power views instead of the higher power planetary work I intended it for originally. :) Or wait till a higher capacity tracking mount comes. :)

PM me if you're interested. Thanks for looking! :)

Upz.

Price back up to $600.

BUT now I'll include a 2" William Optics VR1 violet reducer that is VERY useful on this scope. :) This filter sells for USD$68 before shipping. Now you can get it for just $50 more. :)

Hi,

So the 2" VR01 is not included, but selling for S$50 if buy together with the C6R... is that correct??

Have a nice day.

Not exactly.

Entire Setup,
C6R OTA
EQ-5 Mount

Additional WO VR-1

Back to Original Price-
$600.

I guess it's just a matter of how you want to look at it. You can also say that I decided to sell the VR-1 together with the scope. Let's not debate about the phrasing.

PM me if interested.

Thanks!

That's easy to understand. :)

I'm not trying to debate about the phrasing... My english is not that good, so just to make sure the pricing listed in the buy and sell section is easy to understand.

Good luck to your sale... :)

Have a nice day.
