Hi Troy, Before spending any money what's say you take advantage of your SLAS membership and start off by borrowing a scope or two from the club? Find a list of the scopes available here: http://slas.us/membership_benefits.asp If you're going to buy local you might want to talk to long time SLAS member Bill Cowles at the Inkley's on South State St in SLC. patrick On 04 Mar 2009, at 14:57, Troy Davidson wrote:
Hello all. I'm new here and this is my first message.
I am going to be getting a new (at least new to me) telescope soon. I'm looking for an 8" dob that takes 2" eyepieces. What I'm wondering is...where is a good place to buy either used or new telescopes at a decent price?
Thanks for the help.
