Years ago my mother-in-law bought a 'telescope'; not sure from where but the reject shop would be a good guess. I only saw the moon through it. More purple haze than a 70's rock concert (but without the euphoria) and somewhat less detail visible than naked-eye. No harm done as she would never have really used it and god only knows why she bought it, because I'm sure she didn't. Some poor souls have turned up at club meetings with scopes of a similar ilk (and that is sad because they were interested in astronomy) but nothing I've seen compares. Really, two chemist shop magnifying glasses in a cardboard tube would have outperformed this little joke.
