Skywatcher Explorer 200P for £25!

[Cloudwatcher]

I'm looking to trade in my LXD 75 Goto mount (orrible coffee grinder sounds) for a Skywatcher HEQ-5 Goto so checked

my local astro dealer's web page. They quote a price of £870 for this item but on looking further I found their price for

the Explorer 200P complete with HEQ-5 Goto mount and tripod is £895. A new 8" Newt' for a pony! :shocked:The OTA

price is listed as £240.. I have checked and the price is right.

Shame I don't have room for another eight incher.

You could sell it on for say £100 and offset some of the mount cost

Or spend less on the mount
