Conclusions after recent purchases & sales by iceinspacers:

Meade is for geeks,
but GSO's for keeps.

You got me As I have to sort some family money matters.

Not much left over for Scope stuff.

So I have ordered a Bintel 252 Premium. Big enough to keep me happy and easy enough for a quick set up.

Looks as if the star atlases have a new lease on life.

Geez nearly had forgoten how to Star hop

Geoff,
I still have the 120 till next week.
So if we can catch up on the weekend you can get a look in

We cannot go to our normal viewing site.
So we have another one. Would you like to look through a 130mm Astro-Physics?

Pm me about it.
