Wakefield area 11” Edge Hd owners

Hi all,

Long story but I own a 14” edge scope and have the dedicated 0.7x reducer which doesn’t reduce! In fact it slightly increases focal length to 4078mm. I have tried every back focus setting possible with no improvement.  I have a lengthy thread running on cloudy nights and the consensus from the forum and Celestron themselves is “there is a problem with its optics”

I bought the reducer used from USA in 2013 and being very green with sct scopes back then thought it was user error and stuck it in a draw for 8 years. 
it’s obvious out of warranty and the only thing we can come up with it’s marked up wrong and it has 11” internals as the housing is identical size. 
would anybody preferably local (so I can drop it off) be willing to screw it on their scope and plate solve an image so we can see if it’s reducing?

If nobody is local I will pay for return postage if your willing to test it  

I will buy you a few beers for your time!

Cheers 

Curly
