Do I need another scope

Now that the TEC160FL is back with it's previous owner courtesy of a buy back clause I am trying to decide if I should replace it. I already have a FSQ-106, APOMAX 130 and an FS-78. The possibility of owning a TOA150 was looking attractive but I am also thinking maybe a Mewlon 300. I hate these decisions. Maybe I have enough scopes.

"Enough scopes?" What a strange concept

What's the end game Hans? What are you looking to do? M300? Massive coin. Vixen make something similar, if not better in the VMC330L. Otherwise, why not a lovely dob with Satchmo or equivalent optics...

Need?...no I don't need to. I had a taste of a 6" f/7 scope and it was impressive and it seem to fit the void between a 4" f/5 and a 5" f/12. I guess my motivation to act now buy a new scope was based on the wrong reasons, a great AUD/YEN exchange rate and the rumour of a Takahashi price rise.

I will stick with what I have.
