dawson Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Now I've got my new OTA and mount, I'm not sure what to do with the old stuff; Skywatcher 127, Synscan GOTO mount, Bahtinov mask, solar filter, SW eyepieces, electric focuser etc. I don't desperately need the money but I think it is highly unlikely I'll use it. I also feel slighly attached to it. What has everyone else done / regretted doing? James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Keep it as a grab n go, and then if the attachment wears off after a few weeks and you don't use it, sell it. I sold all my old kit several years ago. I was crazy to sell my 31mm Nagler, and would buy it back in a flash for the ridiculous price I let it go for.

+RonC Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 If you do get an obsy James, you'll need some grab'n'go kit, so hold on to it while there's a chance you may use it (as Pete said!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wayne Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I get very attached to all my kit. That's why I have no money lol :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheila Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 or do what I do, if you dont use it and dont need to sell.... why not loan it out to someone who would really appreciate it??? It then gets looked after and used. Sheila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
