My 80mm F5 cost $200. If I ever sell it (unlikely) I reckon I can easily get that cost back. It's still the best grab&go I've got and currently is setup in the lounge for the short breaks in the clouds we are currently experiencing.

I guess if you buy quality in the first place, you are less likely to sell it.
On my return to the hobby, I bought some cheaper refractors and sold them because I wasn't satisfied-I lost a lot more money doing that, than if I had bought a top notch scope in the first place.
