Looking for Scope

Hi guys. I have my Binos and want to get my first scope, but with my wedding next April, funds are damn tight and I don't want to wait another year! I am looking to see if anyone has any telescopes that are wanting to sell. Budget is around $200. I am in South East QLD so that would be the preferred area so that I can pick it up, but as long as transport costs won't cost as much as the thing is worth, than that isn't a problem.

I know that for those funds there isn't a whole lot that I can get. I could buy a new 130mm Newt or a small Refractor and if need be I would settle for that. It won't be my last scope by any means. Once the wedding is done, than I can buy myself a nice big Dob. But for now, I am desperate to get into the game more.

I would most likely want to stick with a Reflector, but I'll look at anything anyone wants to offer.

Thanks in advance.
