Meade LXD500B equatorial mount with tripod head (no legs)

I have had this mount for a few years now but have rarely used it . It comes with.
Meade wide dovetail adapter and a dovetail bar (see pictures, at present it is carrying a vixen style adapter which i will change back to the meade unless buyer wants it instead)
Meade battery pack
Meade electronic drive system. model1702
Meade hand paddle
Slow motion controls for non electronic driving
Meade 3.2 Kg counter weight with bar
Original tripod head without legs.
I have an ED80 mounted on it at present and using it on an EQ6 tripod , both are not for sale. Meade originally used these to mount 8" schmidt cassegrain telescopes.

Will sell for $300 ono buyer collects or arranges freight from Kurri kurri nsw near Newcastle .If it doesn't sell will consider selling the counterweight and dovetail adapter/ dovetail bar seperately.
