I think you did ok, a good entry level scope. GS is reputed to be of good quality, & I think most would choose this brand over a skywatcher these days anyway.

Seems to be a F5 scope which means you will need better quality eyepieces later down the track to get the best out of it.

I suggest learn the sky, learn how to use the scope until it becomes second nature before you worry about eyepieces though.

Good luck & have fun with it.
Can you even buy a dob with a longer focal length in a 8 or 10 inch diameter then the gso scopes?
