Hi All,

Selling my telescope as I haven't used it since moving into my new house and I need the money to finance my upcoming wedding. I bought the scope back in FEB2009 on these forums.

Quoted from the previous seller 1998 LX200 12" Meade Classic EMC
Scope has been fitted with new motherboard, drive motors and control panel.
Meade Ultrawedge
Custom made heavy duty pier mount
240v power adapter
Rigid Dew Shield
W.O Crayford Focuser
Fitted with TAL 9x50 Finder with helical focuser
Custom made balance system
Custom made dovetail plate with guide rings
On axis balance weight
AOE 80mm f/10 guide scope
Meade Off Axis Guider
Meade 1.25 eyepiece holder
Meade 2" Diagonal
Meade 26mm EP
Meade 6.3 Focal Reducer
Meade T-Mount camera adapter
Peterson Focuser Upgrade fitted
Comes with original foam packaging box
Go-To's are very accurate with excellent tracking

I shall take a photo of everything that comes with the package.

Price is negotiable and will only sell bits and pieces if EVERYTHING is sold (i.e if someone wants the scope but not the wedge then will sell only if I have a buyer for both)

Pick-up only due to the size (Montmorency/Templestowe VIC)

I haven't set a price yet and am willing to see what people offer. But I spose I would expect around $3k-$3.5 for the lot
