At the next monthly meeting, we will have a silent auction of several old telescopes and accessories that were part of the telescope loan program. We are doing this to clear space in the storage area and to raise funds for some new telescopes and mounts.
Below is a list of the items we plan to sell. The show-case item is a Celestron Nexstar 8” with GOTO mount.
In addition to this list there will be several eyepieces and odds-and-ends for sale.
There will be minimum bids. We may be able to issue tax receipts if the final bid amount exceeds the item’s value by a certain amount (if 80% of the bid is above the value of the amount, a receipt can be issued for the difference).
