This Meade LX200 8" GPS -SMT UHTC Telescope System is for sale by the original owner.
Asking $2500. Make an offer ...?
Will consider selling parts separately.
We are only available to show this offering until Monday, Oct 1st.
We are selling it because we simply didn't have time to use it, and would like someone to have it who will actually put it to good use. (And maybe
send us a few picts ....?)
The telescope itself was only used on a few occasions over the years.
The accessories bought in 2009 have never been used.
Only assembled and tested at the store at purchase, to verify everything was in good working order.
Everything has been very well taken care of, and is in excellent condition.
This telescope system for Astrophotography and Imaging was designed by Oceanside Photo and Telescope, and all aspects of it purchased new from them-
in person, not shipped.
Here is the listing of all the components for sale. All were bought new, at the times indicated.
(This is a complete system, the only thing else you would need is the computer to run the software.)
The Total New Price for all this Telescope System's components offered here was: $4678.95
Before Sales Tax.
Meade LX200 8" GPS -SMT UHTC telescope, we got it in August 2003.
AutoStar II handbox, AutostarSuite, Variable Height Standard Field Tripod, eyepiece and all the other accessories that came with the package new,
