By way of additional information, I had this on the Trade thread but want to close that. So remembering that we both got what we wanted, we were never really interested in converting down to a dollar value, in this case it was a pure barter in it's simplest form.

The telescope is a Synta (Chinese Factory made) 6 inch (150mm aperture with 1200mm focal length) Sky-Watcher plus a 6x50 finder, and a 40mm Plossil eyepiece on a EQ5 mount with clock drives in both axis, on a sturdy aluminium tripod.

I am a beginner, so this is meant to be a starter scope, so at this stage a 6 inch refractor is well and truly big enough for me to start with.
