Vixen Sphinx SXW and Tripod

I have too many mounts and need to move this one on as it is not getting used and I am out of space. It is a Vixen Sphinx SXW with a HAL 130 Aluminium tripod, 2 x 1.9kg weights, polar scope,starbook,serial cable and power cable which has a fused cigarette plug for 12V power in . The mount is in good second hand condition and I have the original manual and packing box for the mount, not sure where the tripod box got to. The starbook software can be updated but you will need a LAN crossover cable (not included), its all in the manual. I mainly used the mount for visual observing and although I manged to take a few snapshots, I would not recommend it be used for astro photography as it is hard work. The mount's capacity is about 12kg depending on whose version you believe. Looking for $800.00 + postage.
