Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 22 October, 2008 Posted 22 October, 2008 I have a new 900-114 reflecting telescope for sale. It is ex demo and hasn't been used. I bought it for my boys but have upgraded even before I have used it to a motorised 'scope. It is a Jessops 900mm focal length, 114mm diameter reflector. The new price was £199.99 but I am open to serious offers. I will deliver it within the Southampton/Winchester region for free but further afield it would cost about £15 by Parcel Force Next Day.

Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 22 October, 2008 Posted 22 October, 2008 The same as this, but with a Jessops logo and it is bronze metallic.
Ponty Posted 22 October, 2008 Posted 22 October, 2008 I once paid far too much for a crappy telescope. I think they saw me coming a mile off.
saint francis Posted 22 October, 2008 Posted 22 October, 2008 (edited) I'm no expert but that telescope looks great, I bet you can see for miles with one of those. If I had the cash I'd certainly buy it. Edited 22 October, 2008 by saint francis bad gag removed
Jillyanne Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 Looks a bit like mine although mine is bigger and why sell it - give it to the grandchildren/child?
Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 Looks a bit like mine although mine is bigger and why sell it - give it to the grandchildren/child? Because I have already bought an upgrade to a Celestron NexStar 130 SLT motorised 'scope as I found it on eBay as a bit of a bargain.
Wiltshire Saint Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 Is that a special space telephone attached to the stand, so you can call any passing UFOs you spot with the telescope?
norwaysaint Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 I once paid far too much for a crappy telescope. I think they saw me coming a mile off. Probably 2 miles in your case!
Pancake Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 Is that a special space telephone attached to the stand, so you can call any passing UFOs you spot with the telescope? Maybe its so he can report on the "secret payload" or some "trouble with the Hubble" no?
saint francis Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 Probably 2 miles in your case! I've reported this post.
Ponty Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 Probably 2 miles in your case! I already said, it was a crappy telescope.
Weston Super Saint Posted 23 October, 2008 Posted 23 October, 2008 could i see the moon close up From where?
Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 24 October, 2008 Posted 24 October, 2008 Right. I've put it on eBay with a buy-it-now price of £79.99. Anyone on here who wants it I'll let it go for £75. It's a hell of a saving but I really need to get shot of it. I will still deliver to the Winch or Soton area as well. Sold now.
