C11 (XLT) on CG5-GT Mount (3 Months old)

[Big Dave]

I bought this to use on my U.S. observing trip in October, however I have similar gear at home so this is surplus to my needs.

Setup is only 2 Months old, everything you need to start observing!
The tripod has some marks from transport back from the states.
The setup is otherwise like new.

York has this setup at $8,100 (part# 11067-XLT) but there are some extras in here.

Included in the price is;
.C11 (11" with Starbright XLT coatings),
.Heavy duty CG-5 German Equatorial with full 40,000 object GOTO and tracking ability,
.Adjustable 2" Steel leg Tripod with brace,
.Finder Scope on Removable bracket,
.Optional 2” Visual Back,
.Optional Polar Scope,
.2x11 pound counter weights,
.Hardigg case with foam (I got this locally – Valued at $300+)
.1.25” Diagonal & 40mm eyepiece

Also has manual and Sky 6 software that was bundled.

The item is listed on ebay.

Pick up from Melbourne. Postage would be a fair bit due to the weight & size.

hello dave would you consider selling the OTA?
pat

[Big Dave]

I was trying to keep it together, however I have had some offers on the mount so far. I will sell the OTA, Case, Finder, diagonal, eyepiece and both visual backs (1.25 and 2") for a reduced price of $4,800.

[picklesrules]

How much for just the mount then ?

[Big Dave]

I had two friends who want the mount, I told them they could have it if the C11 went on its own. Sorry the OTA has to go first or all together for a reduced price of $5700.

[Big Dave]

Price Reduction for the whole package $4,900
or
$3950 for the OTA (with case, visual backs, diagonal & eyepiece).

It's goto go to make room for a new investment....

[Big Dave]

Reduced again, $4490

Hmmm, Andrews has it at same price new with Aust warranty might have to lower it, if u want a sale :( Might be why u not getting too many bites.

[Big Dave]

I had not seen Andrew’s ad. This package has extra stuff also; a case (About $350 worth & a $100 2" Visual back). But after seeing that ad I will change mine to suit.
