The prices could vary a lot but if you look at Bintel's site they sell them all. Put all your money into the best mount you can afford. It is surprising what can be done with small shorter telescopes on a good mount. DSO's need the longest subs you can get away with and they don't need long focal length OTA's. We use a G11 with a short tube 8" newtonian, an ed80 with an orion auto guider. PHD for alignment and processing, QY10 CCD. I suppose all up around $12G's
