A new toy
OK, so last weekend I popped into my local scope shop, and was faced with an offer that was to good to miss. Ex-demo, brand new, never left the shop, Celestron NexStar 8 GPS for WAAAY less than it should be. After thinking about it for a split second, I took it…. well, I would of if anyone was around to actually say that I could have it at the price they were telling me. I had to come back today to collect it…. and here it is, complete with dew strip + controller, telrad (plus dew pad), and a inside/outside thermometer stuck on the fork arm (with the “outside” part pushed under the correcter plate dew strip).
