What is it worth please, Celestron CPC 800 GPS (XLT)

Hi Guys, at the place where I am caretaking the owner is a CEO of mining companies and constantly travels for business.


Because he travels so much he had accumulated many frequent flyer points and was rewarded with a gift that he could choose and it was the following Telescope.


I think he got it because it looked good and his intentions were to use it but that has never happened.


It is about two years old and was put on it mount inside the library and there it has stood for that time.
I has never seen the light of night so to speak, and has never been used, ever.


Because he knows I talk to you guys he has asked if I might be able to sell it for him, and I said I will inquire what it is worth.


It is listed at Bintel for $4999.00, but that is now his is about two years old so what would be a fair price please.


The scope is identical to the photos below. and comes with all accessories, Finder, 40mm Eyepiece, Diagonal, all cables and leads, full instruction manual, etc.


Please PM me if you need any other info.




Thank you for your suggestions in advance.


Leon
