SOLD : Selling SkyWatcher Multi-Purpose Mount
I am selling my
SkyWatcher Multi-Purpose Programmable Mount. This is also known as the Merlin or Celestron mount.
This unit is located in Canberra, Australia. I will ship internationally, however you will need to pay shipping. If you are buying from the USA, you are going to enjoy the exchange rate with the AUD aussie dollar.

viewtopic.php?f=24&t=6818You can still buy them here for AUD$699 (around USD$530)

You can also get them in Germany for around USD$336 plus shipping.
http://www.teleskop-express.de/shop/pro ... Mount.htmlI am putting that in here, as hopefully search will reveal to people in the future, its hard to track them down new anymore, as I've spend about 30 mins trying to.
I plan also to sell my zero stage dolly, and whilst I was going to include the mx<>merlin cable with that kit. Should someone want this separately AND plan to use it with an MX, I'll include that cable.
I purchased it to get some extra funky footage before a trip, got it, had two kids, and then never used it again

So this has literally been out of the box once, and is in perfect new condition with all original accessories, manuals etc.
I cannot immediately locate the version of footage from this location I used it with, but here is some timelapse/astrolapse from that kit, just with no movement.
