Knocked another $250 off for *** THIS WEEKEND ONLY ***
$4750
If it doesn't sell, I am just going to bite the bullet, and keep the mount (which if I'm honest is what I want to do anyway).
Will take this advert down on monday.

Everything spotless and in near-new condition - has always been stored inside (I leave it fully-setup in the corner of my living room and just carry everything out onto my back deck to image).
If you don't know: Avalon mounts are the Ferarri's of the astro world. They look beautiful, have superb Italian engineering, elastomer-belt-drives, rock solid guiding, zero backlash, zero maintenance...and all of this with the trademark Avalon dual-dec and *no meridian flip*.
https://www.testar.com.au/collections/avalon-mounts/products/avalon-m-uno-mount
It also comes with multiple dec-extension risers that allow you use long refractors, and 2 additional dec saddles (both a losmandy and vixen) - so you can add a 2nd OTA to balance without any counterweights.
But wait - there's more! The sale also includes an Avalon TPod-130 Tripod - which, while weighing only 7.6kg, has a staggering capacity of 100kg.
https://www.testar.com.au/collections/t-pod/products/t-pod-130
Sale includes:
* M-Uno Mount.
* TPod-130 Tripod.
* Losmandy saddle on main dec arm.
* Both Losmandy *and* Vixen saddles for secondary dec arm (losmandy is installed in pics).
* Counterweight+bar (a measly 0.5kg - and may not even be needed).
* Avalon 55mm and 105mm dec extensions to help with balancing and allow longer refractors to clear the mount.
* Additional base plate for mount
* Stargo handset (never used)
* Polar scope (lol)
* Avalon TPod soft case
* Geoptik mount soft case
Asking $4750 + shipping (new would be close to $13K).
Will deliver if you are within a couple of hours of Sydney THIS WEEKEND ONLY.
