:lol:
I know, but from having one when I was a young 'un and still having it, I still got great enjoyment out of it! I just found the box for it recently, and it cost Santa a whopping £110 back in around 1989/1990! Now, with conversion to €uro (thats around €140, without inflation), thats the price of a good Plossl eyepiece!
:shock:

It is realy no different then going for a Tasco, which were in my opinion, a good low-end amateur telescope!
Not sure I'd use good and Tasco in the same sentence!

Perhap because light travels faster than sound, some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
