Glass and coatings fine, no issues. Dual speed 2” focuser with 1.25” adapter in 2-5/8” OD drawtube. Weighs 20lbs as shown, likely more once you put on a finderscope, diagonal, eyepiece, camera, etc on it so make sure your mount can handle it. Excellent overall cosmetics. Nice scope!
$950, price firm for now, thought I'd offer it semi-locally before posting it on Astromart.
If your interest is in astrophotography you will want the reducer/corrector for this, available for an additional $150 (not available separately).
Cash only unless you have astro stuff of interest to me towards a trade. Local pickup/meetup in the Chico/Redding/Oroville area preferred however I do occasionally take a trip to Sacramento and the Bay Area, a meetup can be arranged for a seriously interested buyer.
Use the CL email system to reply, put "Orion EON" in the subject line and the same along with your name in the body of your reply or it will be ignored.

PS: I have been involved in amateur astronomy and dealing in astronomy equipment on a casual basis for 16 years, have had literally hundreds of scopes, mounts, eyepieces and accessories. Point is this is not just a garage sale find being flipped, this is being sold by a knowledgeable and experienced seller that has tested and used the equipment offered for sale.
PPS: I have a constantly turning over inventory of astronomy equipment, please ask for a specific item or a list of current items, which changes daily.
