Re: Small Scope Wanted, Perhaps
Bob, steer him to the Orion Website: http://www.telescope.com/jump.jsp?itemID=0&itemType=HOME_PAGE For a better selection, and better quality, than Costco can offer. Bob Grant wrote:
In a conversation with my boss yesterday, he said he has a small department store telescope and is considering buying what sounds like a GoTo from Costco for $150. I can't envision what he saw for such a price, but can't imagine that he would be happy with it for very long.

I know a couple of people who have bought that scope from Costco. its a Celestron nexstar 60GT the scope is not all that bad for the price. I really didn't like the motorized "goto" part but the scope it self wasn't all that bad.
