New member with another new equipment question

G'day all,

Brand new here , sensational forum you have here.

My question is I am in the process of researching my first scope and after reading several posts on this forum I am thinking a 6-8" dob is for me.

I have only around $300 to spend at the moment , should I dive into a cheapy or hold out for a few months and spend around $500? If I am still interested down the track I would be happy spend a lot more.

In the meantime I am enjoying a good old pair of binoculars and some online astronomy reading.

Any recommendations on a good beginner book.

Cheers
