The third option is you find a second hand solid tube, 12" or 14", and make your own collapsible scope. Your own specks, your own unique style. I've often thought about purchasing the GSO 16" scope, ripping out the optics and other bits, and building my own instrument as I don't like the of build of those scopes, and can make my own to suit me. Same can be done to a solid tube instrument. Mind you, I make this hobby suit ME, not the other way around,
