True the hand controller is a major part of the scope, but good grief its still useable. I've seen 60mm and 70mm scopes without hand controllers for around a hundred dollars or so. so I would think this scope might be worth 120 to 140 dollars roughly.<a href="http://www.supersportsstore.com/lighting-7777"> Nick</a> Well its not worthless,there’s lots of people looking for a bargain with smaller scopes.

Without that hand controller that scope is worthless. Brand new it retails for $299. If you could find the hand controller and the scope worked then maybe $100 + the cost of the controller ... after all it is used and it a lower end scope at that. Without the controller $0 because it's not even usable. Instead of selling it you might think about donating it to a school or library and take it as a tax write off.<a href="http://www.secretfinance.com/offshore/offshore-private-banking.htm"> digquickly</a> Well, …, I agree with Geoff.

How do you manage to do that? That's where about 80% of the value of these little goto scopes lies. Without it, you don't stand a chance of selling it. Try to order a new hand control from Meade. But how on Earth could you lose it?<a href="http://www.myislandholiday.com/greek-island-vacation.htm"> GeoffG</a> Jeez — you’re the second person on here who has lost the hand control for their telescope.
