Thanks for all the great info guys.
Bintel have told me that the 8" Dob will now not be available till late May
But they have offered an 8" Skywatcher bare bones for $449 so a good price.
However if i add the extras to give me the same package as a Bintel it ends up $666.
Is the Skywatcher worth an extra $115 over the Bintel ?
