I am offering a Meade 8" LX90 w/UHTC for sale bundled with my 7 series 4000 eyepieces. Actually, I just want to know the market value of this scope at the moment. I bought at RM9500. Please offer me.

Ermm ... you just want to know the market value meaning people will offer you a price but in the end won't be able to buy the scope??
Anyway I think it works the other way here .. I think the offer must put up a selling price.

I bought my 8" LX90 for S$1450 but that was once in a lifetime opportunity. The normal used price is S$2000 as being offered by Kochu now. That's about RM4500.

If you purchased this from KL, then you must have bought from where we think you bought from in which case the price would be on the high side!
The LX90 is a really good scope, so you should keep it. You can check with Matthew or Vincent Senior, both LX90 gurus who are experts on tinkering with this babe...
have fun

Try HK, a new 8" LX90 GPS/UHTC with Autostar and standard tripod is for HK$13990 or abt S$2860/- exclude shipping. You can use this as a reference.

Looks like HK is another option. I have an evil idea here. I will tell you if I am successful.

You already have a scope, otherwise you can consider another Malaysian company based in Penang ..
www.perseid.com.my The service is friendly and prices are good especially their truss dobs. But I think they only deal in skywatcher and celestron stuff only.
BTW to everyone, I think we are getting off topic here. Let's stick to offers for Kim Miau's scope. Any other discussions should be started under the "coffee talk" section.
Thanks

Actually, I am always off topic and I like it as I can learn something else.
