Selling my Celestron CGX-L mount. It's a heavy-duty GEM capable of supporting 75 lb. I purchased it used and I have used it lightly in my time with it. This is a highly-capable mount that comes with the Celestron hand controller and a 22-lb counterweight. The mount is boxed up in its original box with the hand controller and original documentation (counterweight boxed separately). I can ship to CONUS (buyer pays shipping and PayPal fees unless using Friends & Family).   

From Celestron: 

"Engineered to carry a heavy 75-pound payload, and outfitted with high-torque motors and a heavy-duty belt-drive system to improve tracking stability and reduce backlash, it is able to smoothly and accurately track near- and deep-sky objects for extended periods of time.

The brain of the CGX-L is the NexStar+ computer controller. Equipped with a database of 40,000 objects, including the planets, stars, nebulae, galaxies, and the complete Messier catalog, it can also be programmed with up to 200 custom user-defined objects with filters added to custom object lists. Its intuitive menu-driven user interface gives you the power to observe the heavens with nine slew speeds, three tracking rates, anti-backlash compensation, and Permanent Periodic Error Correction (PPEC) for smoother movements in the motors and improved tracking over time. Features such as guided tours, extended information on 200 popular objects, and multiple alignment options make the NexStar+ controller easy to use and invaluable to both new users and experienced stargazers."
