Welcome to IIS Jimmy

The advice above is the good oil. I would only add that with these scopes it comes down to the "extras" to clinch the deal. Look at the type of focuser, get the Crayford, type of finder scope, range of eyepieces supplied, filters supplied but here I would suggest you only need a moon filter, the others are things you gather on the way.

These scopes are so close that the accessories supplied will make the difference.

BTW 8" dobs rule!!
