OK, 10" of aperture in a flextube dob - that's more like it. I don't know much about the Skywatcher autotracking system - anyone else?

A pretty reasonable price for what you are getting there.

But still there are questions to answer:-

Where do you plan to use it?
What is the sky like there - light polluted?
Will you transport it to dark skies in car/van etc?
Are you mechanically minded - collimation is a must for these scopes, but it can be a simple task.

To name just a few Qs.
