Solar viewing at it's best

This is one of those should I / shouldn't I moments as I contemplate a 'life after daytime astronomy'

According to my calculations, there is over 23K invested in this awesome solar astronomy set-up with the Ha rig being the star attraction!

Introducing the Lunt THa102DS (feathertouch focusser + case) with B3400 straight through blocking filter, Orion CF diagonal and zoom eyepiece which would retail for over $15K new. I'm offering this scope alone, for the less than price of the single stack ota at $8000.

Want the lot?

Celestron CGE Pro with extra weights and handset ($2500)
The side by side mount ($400)
120mm F7 ED ($2000)
2" Herschel Wedge ($500)
B1200 CaK ($2000)
Zoom Eyepiece($350)
Electric focussers ($200)
Power pack, Shade tent and Scope dolly ($500)

Can be had for ten grand less than new - $13,000.

All equipment in great condition and shipped at the buyers expense. One more thing though, I will only separate after the Ha is sold.
