Is there anywhere I can get that missing piece?

Here are some pictures I took of the focuser with the holder and the 2” - 1 1/4” adapter installed. It’s not very secure, very wobbly and can definitely fall off at the right angle.

I bought this telescope used. Retailer said it was pretty much never opened, only for an audit since the external box had some damage. But it still didn’t arrive with those 2 adapters. I contacted the seller and waiting for a response. Do you know if it’s possible to get those adapters off a store? I have also contacted Celestron support to see if they can do something about it.

It was used, but the retailer claimed the telescope box had never been opened. Could be a possibility that when the telescope was audited for damage, they forgot to put in the adapter.

Hey all, I recently bought a Celestron NextStar 130SLT. I’ve been having a lot of trouble with it, especially with it’s 2” focuser. I have bought two “2 - 1 1/4” eyepiece adapters, both of which don’t fit at all, even after you screw in the screws for the holder that comes with the telescope. It makes collimating a living nightmare. I have searched online for reviews on this telescope, and I’ve noticed all have perfect 2” eyepiece adapters that fit perfectly, but I have yet to find where to buy those from. I was excited about this telescope, but this adapter issue has really killed any excitement I had for this telescope. I don’t know if I’m missing a piece or if I’m doing something wrong anymore. I could really use a hand here, thank you all.
