Which scope did you get? Keep your eyes peeled at the end of Jan, there is due to be a few nights when then will be 5 or 6 planets in the nights sky all visible at the same time.
I bought a scope second hand. It's a bit of a Frankenstein's monster in that it's a Meade Polaris 130 F5 Newtonian, but sits on a Celestron SLT goto mount. I took a punt as I got it for about £70. Came with a 2x Barlow and 4 eyepieces, 2 of which were plossls.
