Apertura Carbonstar 200 Imaging Newtonian with Apertura 1x Coma Corrector
Bought new from HPS November 2025
Well cared for and properly used and stored
Has primary mirror mask and optional dew shield with collimation thumb screws

Please note that in cold weather the primary mirror cell cover has a tendency to fall out. I simply used scotch tape to keep it secure. Also, the coarse focus knob has been removed to facilitate an auto focuser.  The knob is included along with its set screw.

All factory documentation has been dowloaded and printed and will be included

I will pay for UPS Ground shipping to the continental US only.  I prefer to ship to the US only at this time.  Physical street address required...no PO boxes.

OTA will ship in its original factory box with foam inserts and additional packing material.  Dew shield and collimation thumb screws will be removed to facilitate this (original collimation screws will be reinstalled).  Dew shield, thumb screws, coma corrector as well as any other accessories will ship in another smaller box.

Asking $1500...full retail with all options over $1700 plus tax.

Electronic payment via Paypal only

Also willing to do cash on pickup.  Just be aware if I haven't been paid it's still for sale.

Representative images from this scope are M13 and M106 using an ASI2600MC Pro with processing in Pixinsight.

Feel free to contact me with any questions.
Thanks
