HI group
I have just sold my house and moving to a new place. I need to pull down my current setup and am thinking it’s a great time to sell and down size. This also includes the meade tripod for the 12" LX200GPS ( its big). The tripod has a bit of surface rust from being in a shed for a few years as the scope was in an roll off roof observatory.

Items:

12” LX200GPS (Peterson gears, SMT, stainless steel nuts and bolts)
Meade 12" dew sheild
Super Wedge
Starlight Express MX716 CCD USB and guide box
Orion ED80mm
Piggy back rings to suit 80mmED
Weights
2” Flip mirror
12” solar lens (for 12” scope and 80mm ed)
31mm Naglar eyepiece ( yes you read right, includes the eye opener to make this hugh eyepiece work with the 12")
CCD rgb filters
Watec 120n video camera
Plus other bits and pieces. ( 3.3 and 6.3 reducers etc)

Would love around $5000 for the lot
What do you guys think?
Pick up only from Maitland N.S.W.

Sounds like a reasonable price to me.
Plenty of accessories too.
I dont suppose you want to downsize by swapping for a 10" LX200 GPS with quite a few trimmings of its own do you ?

HI
Looking at going smaller than that. Just a simple setup say 80mm with my canon 20d. Simple.
With a new house and baby on the way ( number 3) not alot of spare time for this hobby.

Thanks Bruce,

I had to ask.;)

Good luck with selling your scope. It will be a nice package for someone who wants all the trimmings in one purchase.

Good luck with the Baby....

Make sure you make time for observing too though.

Cheers.

I'll give it a week or two and see how i go selling the lot before I split it all to sell.
The watec 120n is an amazing little camera.
