My feeling is that good quality optics are worth the extra cost.
As I said in my first post, this is a personal value judgement we each have to make. I guess that why this such an interesting discussion to follow.
In my case I put the mount & camera ahead of the optics. Hence my current combination is PME + STL + GSO 300mm f/4. Feel free to have a look at a fairly 'honest' example or here for the full list of this combination.
In my assessment the things holding me back from better images would be (in rough order) the weather, light pollution, seeing, my skills, focus and collimation. Better optics would be nice, but it's down the list. For now I'll just pretend its as good as the test report posted by Dave.
