Did you really pay $2899 for an 8" LX-50?
They are only $1399 here in the USA.
The F6.3 focal reducer is about $115 in the USA.

I have the following for sale (Australia only) as a complete package

New Price
8" LX-50 (with std. bits) $2899
WOODEN TRIPOD $100
OFF AXIS GUIDER -Meade $150
F6.3 FOCAL REDUCER -Meade $250
2" STAR DIAGONAL -Meade(rferactor style)$200
2"ADAPTOR -Teleview, for diagonal $50
KENDRIK CONTROLLER $145
SCOPE HEATER $140
DEW SHIELD -Kendrik roll up $110
TOTAL $4044

SELL $3000

The scope has superb optics (ANY test, and I mean ANY :), welcome).
I am selling because I am building a 12" "super planetary" newtonian for
ccd imaging purposes and need the funds to complete. I am in Melbourne
and am happy to demo the scope to seriously interested people.

cheers
