Mount advice - NEQ6 or CGEM?

Hi all,

Beginner here again. I had decided to purchase a new NEQ6 mount ($1,999), however some second-hand mounts might present a better option.

I see an old CGEM mount is currently selling at $700 (not sure if cables are inlcuded). I have no idea what to look out for other than both mounts support a similar load. My goal is to guide with PHD2 and eventually one day automate my imagaing using ASIair. I know, ambitious for a complete beginner, but just trying to look ahead to the future without having to constantly upgrade and fork out extra money.

What specs do I need to look out for? Any help would be really appreciated!

Cheers,
Stéphane
