I have a practically new StarGate 18" goto for sale, still with its 5year warranty.
The base with the Alt/Az goto motors needs to be replaced. Tasco have confirmed they will do this, i.e. provide a new base.
I also had a custom trolley made.
There is also a coma corrector and laser collimator included.
Price is firm as this is a new telescope and the problematic part will be replaced.
Just to clarify.
Tasco have confirmed a new base will be shipped to replace the broken one at no cost including shipping.
Included in the price:
The telescope
The custom made trolley
The lazer collimator
The coma corrector
That's over $8800 of things if bought brand new using the cheapest prices you can find online, and then you would may need to add shipping costs on top of that.
The optics and light collection capability of this scope are amazing.
