Celestron 11″ SCT Astronomy and Imaging Package
Sales Price: $1,900
A comprehensive astronomy setup for both visual observation and astrophotography - featuring the versatile Hyperstar v3 system that dramatically increases imaging speed.
This package represents an exceptional value at less than 30% of the original retail price. I'm pricing it to sell quickly to someone who will appreciate and use this equipment. Perfect for an intermediate to advanced amateur astronomer looking for a comprehensive system, or someone wanting to upgrade from a smaller telescope. The Hyperstar v3 system alone makes this an incredible deal for astrophotographers.
Why This Package Is Worth It:
• Complete System: Everything needed for both visual astronomy and astrophotography
• Hyperstar v3 Advantage: Dramatically faster imaging capability than standard SCT setups
• Premium Components: High-quality telescope, mount, and TeleVue optics
• Ready to Use: No additional purchases needed to get started
• Versatility: Equipped for all types of celestial objects from planets to faint deep-sky objects
• Value: Total original retail value of nearly $9,000
Additional Details:
• All equipment is fully functional
• Most accessories are in excellent condition
• Original foam-lined cases for major components
• Local pickup preferred (Gilbert, AZ area)
• Willing to demonstrate equipment setup and operation for serious buyers
• Not willing to part out the kit at this time - selling as complete package only
Sales Price: $1,900
