Celestron CGEM 800 HD Computerised Telescope + Extras

Hi,

I have for sale a Celestron CGEM 800 HD Computerised Telescope. The telescope is in mint condition and has only seen light a few times. The optics on the scope are amazing. The scope comes complete with all original accessories, documentation and packaging. I'll also throw in a Celestron CN16 GPS (#93968) accessory which I imported from the US but never got around to using.

I purchased this telescope from Andrews Communications Systems at Greystanes in mid-2010. It cost me just under $5000. I can provide a copy of the receipt if required. The CN16 GPS accessory was purchased from Woodland Hills Telescopes (via US shipping service). The GPS accessory alone in Australia lists for around $600 (from Andrews site).

Full specifications of the scope can be found here:

Why am I selling? I purchased the scope to dabble with Fastar/Hyperstar imaging. Soon after purchase I injured by back, and I simply cannot carry the CGEM mount outside to use it. As such I also have a Starlight Xpress camera and Hyperstar Lens which I will sell in another listing.

Asking price? $2000 + shipping. This price is firm, and I believe is more than fair. I can ship anywhere in Australia via TNT Road Express. The telescope is located in Newcastle, NSW. Inspection is welcome.

Please note that the Celestron Power Tank 17 is not included.

Cheers
Rod
