Takahashi FC-35 0.66x Reducer for FC100 Scopes

For sale is a Takahashi FC-35 0.66x reducer for FC100 scopes.  The reason I'm selling is I sold my FC100DZ.  There is a very very small 2mm blemish on the inside lens but I highly doubt you would see any impact at all in your images.  It's priced accordingly at half price ($890 plus tax new) for this very small imperfection.  I bought it used but haven't removed it from the box.  One side of the reducer doesn't have a cap (it's 3" wide) but it's wrapped and protected well in the box.  Instead of looking for a cap I'm lowering price substantially to sell.  Price is $445 shipped to lower 48..

Thanks for looking.

Takahashi FC-35 0.66x Reducer for Select FC/FS Refractor Telescope Tubes

The Takahashi FC-35 is a 0.66x focal reducer engineered specifically for Takahashi’s FC-100DF & DZ refractors, but is compatible with the FC-125, FS-102, FS-128, and FS-152 refractor telescopes. By shortening the focal length to 66% of the original, it significantly speeds up the optical system, allowing you to capture brighter, deeper astrophotography in less exposure time. The FC-35 also delivers a generous 44 mm image circle, making it ideal for full-frame sensors and wide-field imaging setups.
