recommendation for nube

[stickn90]

Can someone please recommend a telescope for son? He is 10 and I would like to spend under $200. Please keep in mind that I know nothing about telescopes. We will probably set this up in our back yard(relatively dark suburb in GA, USA).

Thanks.

I don't think First Light optics ship to the USA, unfortunately.

The Orion company ship all orders over $100 for free in the USA and have a great range of scopes and good service I'm told. Here are some examples of what your $200 could buy from them:

Great Telescopes Under $200

The Starblast 4.5 looks a good one to me - straightforward to use and easy to set up.

Stickn90, the Orion StarBlast 4.5 Astro Reflector Telescope gets my vote
