Talking Celestron NexStar 5SE

Celestron NexStar 5SE for sale. Scope is in excellent condition, is the current model and in perfect working order.
Specifications as per link: http://celestron-optics.com.au/Home/...%2cProductName. Current site price $1795.
Accessories: Eyepiece and filter set as per link: http://celestron-optics.com.au/Home/...%2cProductName Current site price $379.
Also included is an E-Lux 25mm Plossl (around $95) and a bubble level (around $5).
I lost the receipt when shifting and the NexRemote software disk - I thought it was a wank anyway. I prefer to use Cartes du Ciel, which I am using with my recent 8" purchase. This is why I am selling.
All up there is $2274 value ($1795 + $379 + $95 + $5) - a bit less for a package deal. I will throw in 8 AA batteries.
I am asking $1450 - which is more than 1/3 off.
Photos to follow - will upload them soon.

re Celestron NexStar 5SE

Hmmmm.....270 viewings but no feedback or interest?!?
What if the price was $1300?
$1795 new. That is $495 less than the cost of the scope and effectively eyepieces for free. It is in excellent condition. It makes a nice second scope for me but I can't justify it.

Re Heidelberg

Heidelberg is in Victoria. Given the weight of the package, postage is likely to be around $25 (based on 20kg Australia Post).

It was brought to my attention that on my links the prices have changed from Celestron Optics. They are offering the scope for $1495 new and the eyepiece package $365. So the value of my package is really $1495 (+postage) + $365 + $95 + $5 = $1960 (not $2274 as first stated). I was asking $1300 for the package but I this is somewhat negotiable given the above-mentioned information. $1300 still represents a 1/3 saving.
Regards,
Andrew

Re NexStar 5SE

695 viewings, 3 expressions of interest, but no sale!!
What's going on here?
Asking $1200 for the package. If no interest, I'll use it as a play scope and sell it a later date. Or perhaps eBay?
