You must consider what the item is currently retailing for, not when you bought it.
eg. I bought a Meade LX90 last year for around $3500. They are now selling for $2795. I think there has been a price drop by Meade and the exchange rate is much better than last year. If I were to sell it now, I think I'd be lucky to get $1750 for it, probably less...
The "entry level" telescopes will always decrease in value faster - the more "high end" stuff seems to hold its value better (based on my observations of the trade pages on this site)
