Also on the topic of dept. store refractors.
I bought our scope off Ebay before christmas, for the kids. Trying to be a good parent, I thought it best if I learn't how to use the thing so I can teach them. It got me so hooked! It has opened my eyes to the beauty and depth of our night skys.
The best moments I have had with my little scope, was when I first observed the Sombrero Galaxy a couple of weeks ago, and the other night when I caught sight of Rhea. I didnt think that a $100 scope could do it.
