Well I have finaly done it, and made the decision to get something elses...long story, but the long and short is the LX200 12 inch is just to heavy for me to log in and out all the time ....and my love-affair with refractors has bloomed again!!!:P

Meade LX 200 GPS like new ...not a scratch or even smudge on it!!! hardly used and been stored correctly.

With heavy duty feild tripod, super possl 26mm eyepiece (standard), finders scope, controlers, data cable etc...

will go with it's custom aluminium transport case ( suitable for flying, dragging across feilds and running over ferrels in your fav spot)

the following extra's willbe include for now, but if sale as a package does not happen, then I may consider splitting up.
Meade Ultra Wide Angle 14mm eyepiece, with 2inch mount

SOLD

The scope sold just two hours after posting :eyepop: even I was shocked at the stampede for it, but the new lucky owner will soon brag about his new pride and joy.

Thanks to all that enquired and if the " new owner" dies over the weekend, before delivery, I'll remember all that enquired..lol..;)

now off to my shed and to cry with the two refractors left behind and alone... we shall comfort each other under the star skies this weekend.:(

Mr "L" you a lucky man now...:thumbsup:
