Default ETX 125 (4.5"?) For Sale

A friend's brother bought a Meade ETX and has barely used it. He also bought a ton of
accessories with it. I believe it's a 125 and he wants to sell the whole thing for
$800. You can contact my friend at Bill Odell . His brother
lives in California. Bill is presently moving, so may not respond immemdiately to
queries.

I suggest posting an ad on the net. There are several good spots.

www.cloudynights.com

www.astronomy-mall.com

and the biggie

www.astromart.com

Some registration may be required but there is no cost unless one wants to
donate.

Also, it is good to be clear on what is for sale. The difference between the
ETX-102 (4 inches) and the ETX-125 (5 inches) is substantial. Listing
accessories is also important, it allows a potential buyer to gauge the overall
value of the package.

Thanks. I'll pass it along to my friend. Unfortunately, my friend's life is in
upheaval with the move. He barely had time to tell me much about it. Best to contact
him directly though. I'm out of the picture.
