I have a Nexstar 4GT for sale with tripod and bag, I bought these new from Andrews Comms and have had the hand controller updated to get over the southern hemisphere problem. It cost me all up about $1400, I am willing to part with it for $800 + freight charges. The only reason I am selling this is because I wish to move onto another project. The scope is great and easy to use, and very quick to setup. it will also come with a $110 thousand oaks solar filter as a bonus!
I will accept a bank cheque or Paypal. Please PM me for details or more photos of the scope.
