Would be nice to see some images with the 102. Sounds like there is some unrest in the market at the moment. The 102's are certainly cheaper alternatives to the 106n (assuming you could get a new one);
FS-102 NSV $3750
TSA-102 S $4211
Prices from the AU Tak dealer. Certainly within budget. I would like to point out that these wouldn't be the main scope. I don't want to go too large. It would probably end up a guidescope when not used for imaging.

I have looked at alternative astrographs (i.e not refractors). ASA have some gear, but this would be more a primary scope, possibly secondary if you've got a high capacity mount.
