Re: [tnastronomy] Advice request

Thank you for all of the advice! It is a Meade 10", and I have the cushion case,
a TON of filters, books, battery everything with it. My husband bought it years
ago and just found he does not use it that often, it's so heavy and we dont camp
like we used to, before kids ya know. So we figured we should sell it and he
wants a motorcycle. I have put it on Craigslist several times with no luck. I
will try the Astrosmart, I appreciate it, I will try listing it there. Thanks
again for the advice!!

You could try Astromart <http://www.astromar t.com/>. eBay has too many
scam artists, but the owner of Astromart does a good job of keeping
Astromart clean. I don't know of any second hand telescope dealers in
the Nashville area and I doubt you would have good luck with a
consignment shop. What sort of telescope is it?

Travis, I think that as long as the listing of equipment for sale is done by an individual local amateur astronomer, it would be helpful to the community....
