Took a punt on a used Meade Polaris 130 Newtonian telescope on a Celestron Nexstar mount. Came with 3 plossl eye pieces, a Barlow lens and a AC power unit, all for under £90.
Everything seems to be working, so very happy with the purchase so far. Just waiting for some batteries to arrive for the red dot scope and clear skies.
I'm aware of the old buy cheap, buy twice adage, but this was "cheap" enough to take the risk.
So, I've got a new toy.
