I dont know how these guys sleep at night trying to rip people off this way. Who in their right mind would pay this much for this scope when they could buy a Lunt CaK filter for less money? greed, greed, greed...

I am selling my Coronado 40mm cal/k soalr scope. It is in mint condition. I Barely use it. It will come in it's original case with all that came with it.A keller 20mm eyepiece and the information about it. Definitly a great scope for imaging. The reason I am selling it is use. I have a larger one so I do not need this one. Also they do not make this one anymore ,it is one that is hard to find. It will be shipped to you packed very carefully. Thanks for looking.

Sincerely,

Even I am not that daft! I hope it isn't the one from Spain that I wanted for $500 that he has just received and is now trying to sell at a profit, then I would be cross

What about the guy on Astromart who is asking $3000 for a "70mm Coronado CaK" telescope?

Well, good luck on that.

that's Vince C from this forum and he asked me what to sell it for. Seeing as how there were about a dozen of those made and it sold for a lot more new, I thought that was a good price.

The CaK PST is a frikkin PST! man. Basically a toy that sold for $499 new.
