thanks for the awesome comments guys. really appreciate it. I am more inclined to get this telescope now, keeping in mind the mount might not be the best part of it.
BTW, if one gets to know how to polar align equatorials, are these better for planets than dobs? with dobs the moves are in both axis but with the equatorials, would this be via one knob since the planet will follow its path around the southern celestial pole?
