TeleVue TV85 and Gibraltar Complete Package!
I purchased this setup new in 2003 for solar observing, but never got a chance to get into it. The scope was tested one evening for less than an hour then put into storage (I was moving at the time). This is my second TV85 and it's a beautiful sample! The optics are sharp (as you would expect from a TeleVue) and the focuser is extremely smooth; the best TeleVue focuser I've tried. Completely consistent focuser feel all the way through it's travel.
Everything is in mint condition. I am very particular with my things and this was babied for the very short time it was out. Everything is present, including the original shipping boxes, except for the plossl that came with it. I will, however, substitute it with a 26mm Meade Plossl.
The package includes the following:
- TeleVue TV85 85mm refractor in white (newer style w/compression ring)
- Clam shell tube holder
- 2" Everbrite diagonal with compression ring
- 1.25" adapter w/ compression ring
- Thread on objective cover
- TeleVue Sol Searcher solar finder
- Kendrick solar filter for TV85
- Gibraltar Ash alt/az mount (newer style)
- TeleVue soft case for TV85
- Meade Series 4000 26mm Super Plossl eyepiece
Purchased new, this would cost you about $3,000 plus tax and shipping. I've finally resolved myself to sell this scope (a very hard decision), so snap it up before I regain my sanity!
I'm more than happy to send additional pictures by request. Shipping to be paid by the buyer and I highly recommend air freight w/ insurance as I cannot be held responsible for the scope once it ships.
I am an honest seller and can provide feedback from another online auction service on request.
Pickup is available (Southern California)
Thanks for looking!
Regards,
Rick
