WTS, Vortex / Sandpiper waterproof spotting scope with a (straight) 15-45x65, with the Vortex caps and case. It was about $450 when new, I’d say it’s in very good condition, really “as new”, it’s mostly been in the safe. I haven’t used it in a few years because I have a top of the line Leica now. It’s a line they used to have geared towards bird watchers.
I can text you pics if you’re interested, I was thinking $250 to your door. PayPal f&f preferred or MO. Face to face if local in Chicagoland.

Here’s a bit from an independent review on https://www.allaboutbirds.org/news/scope-quest-2008-our-review-of-spotting-scopes/
Final Tips And Top Picks
With so many fine scopes on the market, choosing the right one should be easy and fun. Your selection should be based on budget— how much you can really afford—and the kind of birding you do most, or hope to do more of with a new scope. If you’re on a tight budget and want decent optics in the least expensive package, I’d try the Vortex Stokes Sandpiper.
