Thanks for your replies. I will take a looks at the links kindly posted. I want to see as far as possible but also want to see the planets. As I said just getting started. 

Hi there, I’m totally new this but my eight year old daughter and I are really keen to buy a telescope and see what’s out there? I’m looking for advice on what to buy to get going, such as minimum size, type, accessories required, brands to avoid. Anything really would be great. I see loads of second hand one for sale so will probably go down that route. Thanks in advance for any advice.
