Bump, the mount package is still available.

I use my iPhone to control the mount 100% of the time, never used the Hand Controller. As the buyer may never use the HC as well, I will discount $150 for the package without the Nexstar+ Hand Controller. So, total will be $1000 plus shipping without the HC.

This is probably the only opportunity for you to get the mount as Celestron do not sell the Evolution mount separately from the OTA.
