I have a brand new TS- Optics AZ5 Heavy Duty (13kg capacity) Alt-Az mount which is still in its shipping box. I bought this mount last year, but my deteriourating vision means that visual astronomy is over for me, and I should let this mount go.

Details of the AZ5 (aka SkyTee) can be found here:

I purchased the mount head from TS, and an EQ5 Tripod for it to sit on from MyAstroshop in Brisbane (this tripod is also brand new, never used).
Also included is this Dovetail:

Offering them all together.

My cost was over $600 all up, I am offering this equipment for sale here for $350.
I prefer local pickup, or I can deliver around Central Coast/Newcastle NSW. However, I can ship these items in their original boxes, at buyers cost to your address. I would ship via TNT or similiar road freight, and would need your address for a shipping quote.

Photos are below.
PM me if your interested. Payment via direct deposit if shipping or cash on pickup/delivery (if doing it that way).

In response to a question, each of the rotating pedestals has four bolt holes for attaching dovetails or other accessories, like a binoculars holder. Two of the four holes in each pedestal are tapped for 6mm bolts, which are included with the mount. Note that there was no counterweight supplied with the mount but the counter weight shaft is included, and it uses standard 20mm bore weights. The head itself it pretty beefy and you could probably get away without using a counterweight at all unless near the mount limit and with weight on only one side. Note you can mount two scopes on this head on opposite sides, or a scope and binoculars ( with the appropriate binoculars holder attached).
