Thumbs up Withdrawn from Sale:Meade LX200R 10" - Expressions of Interest

Hi Folks,
My much loved LX200R may have to go to make way for a new Tak I have my eye on. Scope & etc as follows ;

Meade LX200R 10" UHTC
Meade 26mm eyepiece
Meade Ultrawedge
Meade Tripod

Fitted with Peterson Get A Grip Handles
Upgraded with Peterson Clutch Kit
Upgraded with Peterson EZ Focus Kit
Upgraded with Bobs Knobs
Also fitted with a stunning William Optics 2" SCT crayford focuser ( Meade microfocuser included )
and William Optics 2" Star Diagonal
Fitted with sliding rail weight set.

Also includes, cables, software and a regulated power supply, soft dew shield and reflective scope cover.

The whole package is less than 18 months old and has been cared for.

To complete my next purchase and keep my wife from throwing me out of the house, I'm asking 5K firm + freight.

If anyone is seriously interested I'll post some pics etc when I get back to town next week. ( Adelaide ) and I'll also have a looksee what else I have that suits the Meade to add ( hidden bonuses ! )

Al...if I had a lazy 5k knocking about right now, that set-up would have my sweaty little mitts all over it in a matter of seconds!

Good luck with the sale.

I'm interested

I am interested to know some more. I am looking at buying this telescope new https://www.bintelshop.com.au/Product.aspx?ID=7150 for $5,400. Less if I can negotiate. Can you advise if yours is the same model (ie current model), and what the retail value of the extra accessories that you are selling with the scope. Also, please confirm that the scope comes in a shipping case.

Thanks

Matt

Hi,
Apologies for this still being alive .. I'll mark this currently withdrawn from sale as I'm awaiting some pricing and availability of my new scope.
FYI - yes it is the same model.
The wedge plus
Fitted with Peterson Get A Grip Handles
Upgraded with Peterson Clutch Kit
Upgraded with Peterson EZ Focus Kit
Upgraded with Bobs Knobs
Also fitted with a stunning William Optics 2" SCT crayford focuser ( Meade microfocuser included )
and William Optics 2" Star Diagonal
Fitted with sliding rail weight set.
adds an easy 2.5k to the collection

I should have P&A on my new one next week, so I'll know if I have a wait or not, and I'll know if it's back on the market or not !

I can't seem to edit my post topic .. Mods .. little help !?!
