Hi everyone,
Thanks for getting back so quickly! And thanks for steering me away from the bushmaster. The only thing I would say in it's defense is that $200 wasn't the RRP - it looks like it's being discounted from $300-$350 to get rid of the last of the stock.
janoskiss : Thanks for the links and advice. I must admit to wanting to
stay cheap, but could probably stretch to $300. The 6" Dob from andrews comms would be great depending if it's feasible to ship to Melbourne without blowing the cost out.
Does anyone know of Melbourne based stores with comparable prices to these? I've seen some specialty astronomy shops around who definitely seem to know what they're on about, but are much more expensive.
Really appreciate this help guys! You're probably saving me from buying something which would have turned me off the hobby for good.
Any good Melbourne based stores? (or is shipping from NSW not all that bad?)
Cheers,
Chris
