Thanks for keeping up with this guys. Yes, that's the unit I purchased.

I'm testing my new bearings and repairs when I next get some clear skies in the hopes that I have repaired it. How on earth it got a PE of +-3 with those bearings and the vibrating worm is beyond me.

IF I've managed to do a good job then the mount will be a keeper (and maybe I can offer a repair service!). Otherwise I will be looking at my options.

To my mind I'm going above what may reasonably be expected in order to make the sale work - in good faith, so that if even after I've attempted repairs its still not of merchantable quality then I will take it further.

I know that's a risk because it could be said that I have made matters worse by attempting a repair. I don't think that has happened yet however, visual and audio tests indicate it's better than it was before. Fingers crossed for a few clear nights to test it.
