This is a pristine like new Obsession 18" f4.5 dob with a Galaxy mirror with a strehl of 0.945. The mirror also has a cover inside the mirror box and is kept dust free, it has enhanced coatings from QSP. All certs and documents are included. It comes with the light shroud, telescope cover(Scopecoat from Astrosystems) and custom made covers for the subassemblies. This shows almost no signs of wear and is in like new condition. It was made 4/1/96 and I am the second owner, I bought it from the original owner. It has a NGC-max computer system, telrad holder, JMI focuser, and cooling fan. Also included are 2 steel ramps for loading, the wheelbarrow arms and wheels, and a spare sling for the mirror. This is an outstanding scope. It has been stored indoors.
