Rental Telescope - Hesitant about buying a telescope? Not sure if astronomy is right for you? Rent this Celestron NexStar 6SE Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope and enjoy the best show in the universe.
Flexible rental options:
$600.00 deposit required up-front, payable by credit card, interac or cash.
Note: Rentals are for in-store pickup only, and cannot be shipped. A signed rental agreement is required, which can be filled out in-store.
Rental includes a 25mm (80x) and 10mm (150x) eyepiece, 2x Barlow lens, a moon filter, red dot finderscope, 12v AC adapter, 12v car adapter and instruction manual.
If you purchase a telescope $200.00 or greater within three (3) month of returning the rental, we'll give you your rental cost back less $40.00 to cover equipment check-out costs and administration.
For example, if you rent this telescope for one week @ $120.00, we'll give you a $80.00 credit towards the purchase of a qualifying telescope.
Overcast protection: If the skies don't cooperate, we'll give you another same-duration rental period on a date that's compatible with you (subject to availability). We really want you to see cool astronomical objects, not clouds. If you decide to buy a scope instead of taking advantage of overcast protection, we'll waive 100% of the rental fee.
Due to the popularity of our rental program, we recommend reserving your rental well in advance.
