Mount & Tripod: Meade LX200 GPS
This is a non-functional Mount that also includes the tripod. It is not known what the issue is with the mount. Meade is no longer in business so this may be a great purchase for someone looking for spare parts for their LX200 Mount.
Tripod: Large Celestron Tripod
Sales Price: $100
CelestronLargeTripod_P1040619
This is a heavy duty tripod that typically would sell for about $500 new.
Telescope: Celestron NexStar 8SE (cira 2000)
This kit pretty much should be everything you need to get started observing
Includes the following items:
• Nexstar 8SE SCT ( circa 2000)
• Single arm Fork GoTo Mount
• Tripod
• 1.25" Visual Back
• 1.25" Star Diagonal
• Eyepieces (1.25")
• 40 mm Plossl
• 15 mm
• 2x Barlow lens
• 120v Power adapter
• 1.25" polarizing filter
Notes:
• These older model telescope mounts do not support firmware updates.
• This has the old NexStar controller on it (There have been two revisions since, NexStar*, NexStar+). The controller display, while still readable is not in very good condition, left columns on display are sketchy.
• I did perform a basic alignment on this unit and it appeared to complete successfully.
