jc, they are all made in the same factory, painted different colours and then different brand names stuck on them. Skywatcher, Saxon, Orion etc.
The only ED80 not made in the same factory is the Celestron ED80 with has a thinner tube than the others. I don't know anything about the Celestron but I did read in 'Cloudy Nights' that the ED lens comes from the factory that makes the others anyway.
You should be able to get a brand new ED80 for around $599.
Andrews in Sydney has them for $549 if he has any in stock.
Saxon/Skywatcher ED80
80mm x 600mm refractor
$549.00 AUD
