DSV, M2, Vamo or similar alt-az mount

Looking for an alt-az mount. Ideal option is a DSV-2 or DSV-2b, preferably with QBS (quick balancing system) but will consider other models.

Not looking for anything with GOTO or tracking but encoders for push-to would be a bonus.

Payload capacity would be up to an 8" SCT or 4" refractor.

PM me if you have one to sell.

Still hoping to find a DSV-2 or other good quality alt-az mount.

Will consider any quality alt-az mount in complete condition and full working order.

Edit: Looking for manual 'push to' mounts only, no GOTO.

have half a mount -- missing the section that tripod legs bolt onto. From a Saxon 90mm. Think it may have a vixen wedge

Thanks but want a complete mount with reasonable capacity.

Oops, I did say "any" didn't I!

Looking for a manual mount without GOTO or tracking. A push-to system with encoders would be nice to have but not a necessity.
