A. Is this a decent telescope?

Imagine a decent telescope rates 100 points

Deduct 10 points for every one of the following:

1. Pictures of space on the box.
2. Barlow lens included.
3. Coloured tube
4. Any easily identified plastic parts.
5. Tripod legs have more than one section.

Now deduct 1 point for any magnification claims over 100X ( eg, 575x deduct 57.5 points.)

Any points left or are you in negative territory??

If your scope still rates 100, post a picture and someone will give you an honest opinion.
