Thanks, I am after a used scope however not a new one, so there should be some margin for manoeuvrability. I know that the 16" Meade goes for 3k and the Andrews 16" GSO will go for 2.5k, both new of course, so doubling the new price should get me something larger second hand, at least that's my logic. Your SDM scope will no doubt be totally awesome (judging from a quick look on a few web pages), and at some time in the future I will no doubt upgrade again to a better 'Manufacturer', but for now I am happy to have a pre loved unit, that will fit into my budget.
