It really depends how much you want it imho, if its a 1.8 your talking over a thousand pound for the set up from SSS, if you was going to buy one new anyway 5/600 pounds not out of the way, obviously £300 or cheaper would be better,

I tend to wait for the bargains and get in before others have time to think.

When i was up on outbuilding it is mounted on tape measure from top to bottom was just around the 2.3m mark so i am assuming its a 2.2m, was previously used for Bein Sport reception on 7° west at some point

They advertise it as a 2.3
Primesat 1.8m prime focus satellite dish. Aluminium prime focus dish with feedhorn and LNB.,

If you can find the right person its worth £700/800 imho, if its cheaper it might go quicker, we all want a big dish but scared of throwing money away to have it sitting there due to planning, if its cheap some one will buy it and take a gamble/stuck it in the shed just to say they have one.

Yes, that DH 2.4 was in your back garden before most folks had thought about putting in a bid. You have to move fast on these top class antenna on the rare occasions that they become available, no point sitting on the throne curling a brown one down thinking about it.

The value increases if it is a 2.2m, second hand including the ground stand and Az/El mount I personally would want it in the bag for £400 or less. Its a nice dish and looks in good condition, it should sell easily enough if priced correctly.

Yes it is for sale but as it is not my dish its a customer that i have recently done some work for i will have to find out what kind of price they want for it all.

Should probably know sometime this week, Just gauging the price quotations before i give them a realistic value on what its worth as i would rather see a member from here bag it and get some use out of it instead of the usual Fleabay route

Looking on SSS the dish is £1559.95 and the stand is £599.95, obviously its up to the owner what he lets it go for at the end of the day.

No satellite stuff for the moment (aside from a 43cm minidish that was on the house already), Samsung SyncMaster T27B550 Smart TV & Monitor, and a few computers...

Depending on where the dish is located I would be interested in it, but without a polar mount I wouldn't want to pay too much.

Where is the dish located and would it be dismantled ready for collection?

Rgds

The Dish is Located near Failsworth Manchester, it is still fully assembled but seeing as its a customer of mine i am willing to give any potential buyer a lift to dismantle it.

I will have a word with the owner and see how much they originally paid and then give them the estimates that you guys have provided, I will let you know

What sort of condition is the dish in? Are there any dents or dings in the reflector parabolic profile?

I want the 7.3m, only to give local planning a headache and my neighbours who reported me for my Master Focus 90cm .

My neighbour reported me for a small 1,2 so I put a 2.4 on a movable base, no planning needed, that will teach them they might think twice next time they want to try and spoil someone's hobby.
