I have a deposit on the telescope. I wound up letting it go for $2000, which is below parts cost, but I guess in the end I used it for 10 years and lost about $400, so I can't complain a lot. I do have to drive to Toledo at some point and deliver it and get the remainder of the cash for it.

This afternoon I shipped out my last couple of eyepieces and the laser collimator.

The only thing left is a somewhat bedraggled old eyepiece case and a cheap collimation tool, a couple of planispheres, a couple of maps and the two-volume "Night Sky Observer's Guide" which I am so impressed by that I haven't been able to let it go yet. I probably should though. If I get another telescope it will be small and that book set is mainly good for 8 inch and up scopes.

Yeah, I guess I may as well list it tonight. It'll just sit there otherwise.
