Patience is a virtue in this game.
If you have a limited budget, then I'd save until you can get something that will last a long time. Nothing wrong with a 6" scope, but the cost benefit ratio of the 8" through the additional light gathering is much better than a 6" scope.
I'd wait and save.
Also, try getting to your local Astro-Club and see a few scopes, you'll thank yourself later.
