Less then one year old in excellent condition and very, very lightly used. It's just to big for me to move in and out by myself so I use my ETX90 scope now. Comes with wireless remote Autostar, the standard autostar remote, Orion shorty Barlow, Meade 16mm Plosol and the standard eyepiece that came with it, external power supply, a Meade case and a few other goodies. I'll post some pics sometime today. It can be picked up in Carson City, NV or I will deliver to the Bay area of California where it can be picked up there. I perfer that it be picked up here so you can check the whole thing out first. It's perfect. Still have all the shipping cartoons also. $2650.00 gets it all.

Final-approach..... I cant believe you would sell that and look through a SKIMPY ETX? You know aperature is EVERYTHING!
I too have a 125 ETX but use it only for travel going on vacations and stuff :)
I have a Meade 14 GPS and if you think your 10 is hard to move then try the 14. I had a 10 before the 14 and I used it all the time!
KEEP IT!!!!
Oh, if you want to sell the wireless Autostar let me know what you want for it! I gotta get one :)

Hey Bob. Yep, I hate to have to give it up but I'm just not getting any use out of it since I had my back surgery 6 months ago. My youngest boy moved out and he would help me move it in and out and I just can't do it by myself anymore. If I don't get any action on the scope soon I'll keep you in mind for the remote Autostar Bob. Hey I have a 36 Islander too. Helicopters, sailing and telescopes, Hmmm sounds familiar

Yea strange and your not the only RC Heli guy I know that is into the exact same stuff!!!! The Sailing and Telescope stuff is a VERY common "double hobby". Many people I know into sailing are also into telescopes.
BTW have you tried selling it here:
http://www.astromart.com/
It's free and a well known site. I have bought and sold a lot of stuff here.
