8" Reflector on Heq5 pro mount with extras

I have a 8" reflector in excellent condition on a HEQ5 pro mount.
I am selling it to get something more portable for the kids like a nexstar5 or 6.
so if anyone is interested in a swap let me know.

Reflector is the bintel one @ f5. It is in excellent condition and has literally only been used a few times.
mirror is in perfect condition.
I have only repositioned the finder scope to the opposite side of the focuser to help balance.
Scope comes in original box.
It is equipped with bob's knobs on the secondary.

it comes on a HEQ5 Pro goto mount with tripod and 2 counterweights.
The mount works very well and has no problems whatsoever.
accurate gotos when setup properly.
handset comes with the latest synscan version.

Also included-
-hotech 1.25" collimator
-8" bahtinov mask
-35mm extension tube.
-finder scope
- dc power cables
-cables to attach scope to computer via handset.( I have done this successfully and it all works well)

I want to sell as a complete system so I am not interested in splitting it up at this stage.
It is basically a complete system except for the battery pack and eyepieces.

Price - $1000

pick up from the Gold Coast.

thanks for looking
