My very first scope came from eBay 2 years ago. I believe I got a bargain 6" reflector on a dodgy tripod but I went to the local camera shop and bought an expensive tripod $199 for the tripod and believe it or not $18 Inc post for the scope. I had a lot of fun with this scope and it enabled me to see if I wanted to spend more money on better equipment, which I did. I passed the cheap scope on to someone else but unfortunately it was stolen from their backyard while they where inside having dinner.
