Meade Lightbridge 16 with Argo Navis

[p medcraft]

Scope is less than a year old and in excellent condition (virtually unmarked). It has literally only seen about 6 outings, hence the sale. This monster gives great images and comes with an Astrozap shroud and well fitted new Argo Navis. The Argo inludes the upload cable and is already loaded with the bulk of the Hartungs catalog, minor planets and current comets. I chose a Red dot pointer as a finder scope and will sell it with a laser collimator.
A great package and should be excellent value for $2400.00AUD
I would prefer local buyer given the size of this brute.

I'm curious, why the need for the sale?

[p medcraft]

Easy answer, I have owned a Meade LX200 12" with all the fruit, a CGE 1400 with all the fruit and been playing in this field for 15 years. I have downgraded as my involvement has lessened and the Lightbridge was a great comprimise on glass and price but i don't even get enough time to use that and my wife has reminded me just how many hobbies I have that i am not doing. So the gear is finally going. The eyepieces have sold so all that is left is the Lightbridge and a great Coronado setup. I am lowering the price on both to get them moving but would prefer local buyers as they would both be a ***** to ship.

Hi I am interested in your big dobs monster. You mentioned that all eyepieces have been sold, so do you mean that the LB will be sold without an eyepiece?
If possible, I would like to have an inpection on your scope before I commit myself to it. Is it OK with you?

Guys, a reminder Icetrade is not the place for discussions. Irrelevant posts deleted.

OK, panoptics, naglers and Coronado package are now all gone.
The Lightbridge 16 with argo navis and Astrozap shroud is the remaining bargain.
So lets be clear:
Lightbridge and Argo are less than a year old and in excellent condition physically and optically.
The Argo is extremely accurate
I am adding to the mix a kellner 20mm eyepiece, a Kendrik dew heater and two 1.25" heating straps, a laser collimator, an illuminated reticle eyepiece, Hynes book on Planetary Nebula, Collins book on stars and planets, a southern hemisphere planisphere, a laminated field edition set of star charts, a Redbeam II redlight torch and the boxed set of 300 of the brightest galaxy star charts for Supernova searches. I am out of partridges but will through in a pear to the interested buyer.
all for $2400.00 ring me on 0408903465
