Meade ETX-90/EC Astro Telescope
Again, like members to have first crack before I post this on Craig's List. This was a gift to the girlfriend by her X and used maybe three times in the last 8 years and she'd like to part with the reminder. It also comes with a Meade #497 Autostar Computer Controller, thinking $375 is a reasonable price based on what I see for these new, might make a nice Xmass gift for that young budding astronomer.

Sold on Craigs List for $300, but the buyer discovered there was an issue with the gears, so they returned it and their money was refunded. Meade apparently determined that in moving this around the house for 8-10 years, the girlfriend must have damaged the gears. It tracks automatically left, right and down but struggles like many of us old farts to go up. Aside from gears, this stuff is new and used only a couple times. I think for $125 it still a good telescope for someone and maybe the gears can be repaired, because Meade no longer supports this with parts.

Astro glide might be a good lubricant for the gears.
