A few years I worked in a camera store over the Christmas period. A young woman and her parents came in and expressed an interest in one of the ubiquitous cheap "Tasco type" refractors promising 525x magnification, etc. I politely explained all the shortcomings of the package and ended up selling them a nice Nikon 80mm spotting scope that was on special.
A few days later they brought the Nikon back, complaining that the magnification was too low, couldn't see the flag on the moon, blah blah blah, and returned it in favour of the Tasco. I wonder how happy they were with it.
