[SOLD] Takahashi Mewlon 210 Setup

[the_blacke (Ross)]

I'm listing my Mewlon for sale. It's a fantastic scope, however I've put a different scope on my mount, and now that it's there I can't see myself taking it off again. So rather than leave it sitting here looking pretty but doing nothing, I'm looking for a new home for her.

If you buy the package listed below, price is a firm $4000 (which is a significant discount).

Here is what is on offer:

Takahashi Mewlon 210
Standard Mewlon visual back
Takahashi rear-mount rack & pinion focuser
ZWO EAF Bracket & connector for Takahashi (suits R&P focuser)
Takahashi reducer for Mewlon 210 (0.85x in reality)
Takahashi Mewlon thread to standard SCT adapter
Bob's knobs for Mewlon 210

I am willing to split this up if you want the scope but not all the other bits. The Mewlon itself is $3000 firm, which is a bargain compared to new but that is what I paid for her so that is what I'll sell her for. Half of this kit I bought here on IIS so you can check the archive for what the bits are worth.

If you tried to put this setup together brand new, you are looking well over $8,000. But if you're wanting to go the whole hog, shoot me a PM to discuss as I could add a Baader FFC and a ZWO ASI174MM and you would be all set for planetary / lunar work.

By the way, did I mention the Mewlon is only 8kg? That's lighter than an Edge 8" with further reach, and much more style.

I have the carton it was shipped to me in, so safe shipping of this unit is easily done.
