Hi Luke
The 2 scopes you have mentioned are the same scope, Bintel get GSO to rebadge them. One slight difference is that Bitel will unpack the scope and check it out, while Andrews simply ship the boxes as the arrive from Taiwan.
The main difference though is usually the price and the various accessories. I note they are both the exact same price, usually Andrews are a little chaeper. The only diff I can see ATM is that Andrews come with 9, 15 and 25mm EPS while Bintel substitute a 30mm Superview 68deg AFOV ep for the 25.
Pretty much of a muchness. I have dealt with both companies and would have no issues with either.
On a further note, you mention 6" dobs and 8" dobs. I would always go the 8" unless budget just will not stretch. Much greater light gathering ability and only a small increase in bulk.
Cheers
Malcolm
