My first scope is a Celestron 130mm reflector, which I'm still using and having a lot of fun with, was from Argos.

I purchased it in January and havn't looked back.

Okay, Argos isn't the recommended place to buy a scope, but I must be lucky, I havn't had any issues, it's

perfect for my needs at the moment.

Quite a few accessories can be bought with it.

Glad I didn't buy a Goto scope, as with the manual scope, I'm learnig where things are fast.

Also. the size isn't too big to handle for a first scope.
