Default how much are these telescopes worth?

I have two telescopes and I want to sell them and buy one better one.
I have a celestron gt114 goto and a tal 2m 6inch with motorised tracking.
both in very good condition, i want to sell them and buy the best compact
scope
I can with a minimal amount of extra cash towards it (kids costing me a
fortune).
the new scope must track of course as i want to do some ccd work, it will be
set up permanently
in a small observatory ive built.


thanks in advance for any advice

Hayley, probably not much comfort to you, but I've had my Nexstar 114GT
plus a couple of extra bits on astrobuysell for over a fortnight at 110
pounds and had no interest yet. It may just be that there's not much
'footfall' by there for folks wanting to buy that level of scope, as
another on there with a 2x barlow in addition to the basic setup went
for 195 pounds a couple of months back.

Hayley,
You can go to www.astrobuysell.com/uk and do a search for similar
scopes like yours to determine sell price and availability on the used
market.

Regards,
Paul.
