What is a fair price to offer for this scope? I have the option to buy a 12.5 Discovery Truss Dob for $1200.00 US Dollars but the guy said we can work on the price. The fellow selling the scope has had it for about 8 years he said and he purchased it at his astronomy club from another member he knew personally. He said the other guy owned it for quite a while but I have no exact time period. I dont know when they first started making this model or who made the mirrors.

No eyepieces are in the sale and no collimator. The Mirror has never taken out of its cell. Owner says the views are very nice. That is all the info I have on it until I tread across town 30 miles to go look at it.
Thanks for looking people and any comments are appreciated.
I have Eyepieces and a laser collimator but looking to buy a new collimator also.
