Replacing one telescope with another

A couple weeks ago, we drove to Scottsdale, AZ for the day and bought a used 18" Obsession Classic telescope from a really nice guy who made some great modifications to it. Now that we have the HUMMER, space isn't a problem so we really don't need an Ultra Compact telescope any longer. The classic is the same aperture as the Ultra Compact but has a ServoCat drive system, more cooling fans, and an electric collimation system.
I put the Ultra Compact up for sale on Astromart tonight here: http://bit.ly/2hOgiC
Here is a picture of the two side-by-side.
