Ok, so I'm this >><< close to buying. I'm definitely going for an 8" dob, and have narrowed it down to three options, which I'm finding it near impossible to choose between.
A SkyWatcher SW680 for $539 + local pick up.
Or the Bintel BT202-B for $549 + local pick up. Includes
Quote:
26mm (2") Fully Multi Coated Eyepiece, 15mm and 9mm Fully Multi Coated Plossl Eyepieces, Moon filter, 8x50 90° Correct Image Finderscope, Base carry handle, eyepiece rack for 2" and 1.25" eyepieces and Snap-on dust cap.

Or the GS 680 8" for $499 + ? freight, which seems about the same as the Bintel but includes an extra 6mm and a 25mm Plossi eyepiece. Are these worthwhile? Or are these deals much of a muchness?
Any thoughts? I promise after this I'll stop bugging you with my questions!
