Hello all,
I am selling my much loved Takahashi TOA-130NFB that I originally purchased BRAND NEW from Takahashi. My wife said I have too many telescopes...and maybe I do...
In any case, this beautiful TOA has been "inside the house kept" (see picture) when not used, as I would setup at night and take it back inside the next morning--- every time I took it out.
This sale INCLUDES the Tak 4" flattener (in pics and spreadsheet). Also, for the moto-focus upgrade, all the ORIGINAL Tak bolts, etc. are included and were kept safely stored.
With this TOA, I have had images featured nationally and internationally, including on YahooNews (in the US and UK), BBC Sky at Night, Sky and Telescope, Astronomy Magzine, and many others.
This telescope is in pristine condition --- from the outside to its optics (which have never been touched). Not a single scratch (just because that's how I am).
Note: I also have ALL the ORIGINAL shipping containers. I can ship as pictured (with the finder scope and rings), or without...or just with rings, etc. Buyer can let me know preference. In ANY case, it will be extremely well-protected, just as Takahashi does for anything they send to you (Tak owners know this).
Below, I am showing the "original purchase" price of all items...and I have every receipt for everything you see.
ALL original included items that came with the TOA you will see in one picture --- and of course, that is included.
Essentially, you are getting exactly what Takahashi sent to me --- plus the additional items (all original Takahashi) plus the mounting plate for Taks from BT Technologies (famous at the time...I am not tracking now).
CONUS only. Buyer pays shipping. Buyer pays any extra PayPal fees. I also accept Zelle.
Mount in first pic is not included. What is shown in all other hardware pics is included.
Please message me with any questions!
Thank you for your time!
