Cheers for the info Gary, I just ordered the scope today should arrive next week some time I'm excited and my friends are already sick of me talking about it.
Thanks to everyone else for helping me choose a good starter scope and avoid a disappointing ebay purchase.
I'll be sure to let you all know when my scope arrives and all the fun I have with it... now I'm sure I have a old SLR around here somewhere
... but that could be dangerous...
