Hi all,

This is too expensive for me, but I thought that anyone who was thinking of buying an adjustable astro observing chair might be interested in what I came across on ebay.

It seems like it wouldn't be too bad for observing, depending on what size scope you have.

Cheers,
Molly.:)

Looks interesting Molly, but yes, bit pricey.

Yes Liz, as I said, a bit pricey for me, but the astro chair is around $179, so I thought this might be a good alternative.:)

If I was going to spend that much I'd spend the extra and get a specialist obs chair from Bintel or such. I think they are about $180 and they are one of the best observing investments I've made. It's quite amazing how much extra detail you can see when you are comfortable.
