This mount is a great travel mount for a small achromat  (visual or photo), or perhaps a small apo triplet for visual only.  I recently upgraded to a heavier scope and this no lingers suits my photographic needs.  Barely used and in perfect working order, looks new.  This includes the base package plus all upgrades: illuminated polar scope, azimuth adjuster, two small stock counterweights, and the Twilight medium tripod.  That is approximately a $600 value new.  I can also include, if you want (no additional charge other than shipping): an additional 5lb ES counterweight, the original travel tripod, Zwo Counterweight bar (the threading is the same so it is compatible, and it's a bit longer and thicker so sturdier, it is an upgrade) with ioptron 2kg counterweight, two 1.5" tripod leg brackets for accessories such as a Pegasus or ASIAir.  An Explore Scientific battery (basically unused) with approx 150wh that fits neatly into the battery leg bracket is available for an additional $50.  NOTE: the telescope in the image is NOT included.  Available for local pickup within the Philadelphia area (I am willing to meet within a roughly 60 mi radius of Philly, or in Delaware where I work) or buyer pays shipping.  EDIT: I am looking for a mount that will support a William Optics GT81 imaging setup, so if anyone would prefer trade + cash for a suitable mount (approx 30lb max payload) that would be welcome!
