Well, I would advise anyone against buying this scope at any price, unless it's for tinkering with, say something to pull apart with your kids to show them how it works, maybe get the barlow lens out and play around with mods like a curved spider for a wide field deep space scope. I'd say it's worth up to $100 for an honest sale. You could probably sell it for $200 or more if you are willing to con the buyer into believing it's going to be a scope that does everything (like the junk scope sellers on ebay do). But I rather you didn't.

The 12" Dob is a great scope. Have you used either scope?
