Heads up cheap reflector on E-Bay


Doc

Recommended Posts

Just saw this on E-bay, I'm a bit waery as I never heard of the name, but then it's an 8" F4 Newt, so pretty quick for AP.

I don't know though but it's cheap and could be worth a punt.

This looks very similar to a Seben, and the lengths don't look right either, an 8" at only 800mm long?

It will probably have a none removable Barlow stuck in the focuser tube.

Pity you did,nt know me a couple of months back

Sold one of those brand new (branded visionary MiraCeti) for £80 with an EQ mount

Now discontinued in favour of the Visionary Saxon 200P

It wont be a parabolic mirror, and the finder is pants.

The customer is well chuffed....But then, he has,nt looked through a SW 200P to compare

If t is the same spec as the old model visionary, it wont have a non removeable barlow.

I know that , because I had a nosey before sending
