k, so seen a bit of the BBC Sky At Night and thought about buying a telescope, got some half decent binoculars and can see a shit load more stars with them than i can see with the naked eye. So i browsed Ebay and looked at a few, but i dont know anything about them....... Anyone got a half decent one for sale ? .............. btw , am looking for one that'll see stars and planets etc, not a cheap £10 one to look at teh woman showering across teh road from me
found this on ebay, but if anyone got a better one for sale second hand for around the same money + delivery i'd be very interested, thanks

you can get a half decent one between 200-400 quid... anything below isn't worth the glass (plastic) thats in it... depends how big you want also.. or a motorized one...
if you dont have the cash available id w8.. the more you have the better you can buy.. look out on adds and ebay for somthing like the Celestron NexStar SE there's a few in the range but the 4 or the 5 is awsome bit of kit.. also u don't need to know where the stars are.. it's motorized .. they find em for you.. unless your in the front room and the stars at the back off the house..
hahah, yer or if i have £2,000 i can get a really good one........................... but to get a quick taster of it, and its probly gunna be a novelty, thats gunna end up in th eloft in a box within 2 weeks........ i can't justify £300 on one...........
it's like yer X5..... the best ya buy, but ya don't get yer monies worth out of it. For how often ya use it, and ya probly don't use it to its full potential, you'd probly be better off starting out with a 4.0l Jeep Cherokee.......... 10% of the price, not too special to be scared of using it FULLY...... and all in all you'll get a similar experience...
btw, that second vid is shite, ya can see hubble...... ok , his timing was GOOD to see it, but the moon looks similar detail through my binoculars
