My ED80 and EQ6 Go-To Mount Sale

Hi Guys,

It has been awhile just got back from my wedding and honeymoon and have spend the last 2 years in hibernation . Due to my limited time on the hobby, it saddens me that I have to finally let go of all my gear whats left of it.

I'm selling either as a package or individual my ED80 and my EQ6 go-to mount.

- Orion ED80 600mm F7.5
It comes with an extension tube, both tube rings (white in colour), dove tail plate for the EQ6, 1.25" adapter and a screw on camera adapter for piggyback astrophoto stuff. The lens does have some dust but im sure you guys are smart enough to give it a good cleanup The focus ring rubbers are 1/2 coming off as seen in the pic (which can be replaced) and the focus nut is hard to tighten the focuser. overall still in good condition. $400 (pickup only)

- Skywatcher EQ6 with Go-To Skyscan with Tripod
The skyscan hand controller does have a crack as seen in the pic, however it does not affect the display. Personal opinion is that the mount will need a regrease as I haven't use it for quite sometime. Last time i used it, it tracks and guides well. It comes with 3 counter weights and does also have a polar alignment scope built-in. I also have the original box to it. $1200 (Pickup only)

or $1500 for both (Pickup)
I'm situated in the south eastern suburbs of VIC.
I do have more bits and pieces lying around but will advertise them abit later. Cheers again guys .
