PENDING Sale Vixen SXW SPHINX Mount with Starbook with GoTo LAST DAY
Hello to all.
I have a Mint Vixen Sphinx about 1 year old purchased from Japan.
The mount does not have 1 scratch on it and performs excellent.
Comes with Starbook and all cables and of course Vixen Tripod and counterweight.
The Go To is spot on and can carry a heavy load.
Reason for selling Too many Scopes
Price 1400AU I will cover postage Australia only or pick is OK I'm in the Blue Mountains
This is a great setup and in Mint condition
Please no tyre kickers you will not be disappointed.
If you can find a cheaper Vixen mount in this condition BUY IT.
LAST REDUCTION ( FINAL ) $1400 AND I WILL COVER FREIGHT
First one that makes a firm commitment gets this great mount. NO FURTHER REDUCTIONS
Please note this mount will be pulled off today 01/05/08 Sold or Not
And it will not longer be relisted.

Hi, does it come with the original shipping boxes for the tripod and mount?

Is the tripod a Hal 110 or a HAL 130 unit? What is the weight of the counterweight?

Many thanks
Tony

Hello
Thanks for your questions
Im sure its the Hal 130 tripod as the 110 was the green one.
It comes with the standard weights 3.6 I think.
Also I dont have original packing but sure I could find something that would work.
Thanks again

This is an excellent mount for the money, highly recommended. The last 2 that were advertised on ice in space I bought!

Yep if I had not just recently bought a heq5pro I would have been right onto this one.
Notice how with the sphinx the scope mounts much closer to the RA axis than the heq5 or most other mounts. This means less counterweighting is needed, making a lighter and more portable mount.

Petar, if I'm not mistaken, I believe "Looking Up" sold that mount long ago. Fox
