Aldi/Lidl Due Another Telescope Sale Soon?

Uh-huh, the Meade ETX-70 with a 15,000+ object database in its GoTo controller.

Seanie.

Thats a nifty bit of kit for Aldi!!

Can you remember a ballpark price?

I dont remember, I think the general consensus at the time was that it was a good deal though, especially if you knock off the postage costs etc that it would have cost otherwise. I think I remember a schmidt cassegrain, a fairly large refractor, a 70mm refractor and a 6 inch reflector, all in classic Meade white but I could be wrong, my memory is horrific.

It was on sale for €169 at the time. Retailed normally for €249 elsewhere.

I remember there was a Meade 6" relector on a lxd75 mount for €600 or so
