onmehedson Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Hi all, its about time i said hello after spending the past couple of weeks browsing this fab forum. Initally I was looking for info and tips on buying a scope as I am about to star-gaze again after many years. Anyways, I decided to buy skywatchers popular 150 PL. I have just order it tonight from First Light Optics. What a great price for the scope and mount and I also bought a moon filter and an extra eyepeice. All these together came to the same price some sites are just selling the scope + mount for, so I`m well chuffed. So sitting here now eagerly waiting for Mr. postman to bring the goodies..

brantuk Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Hi and welcome to the group Nice little starter pack you have there - and it sounds like a great deal. You won't be dissapointed with that scope - I started with one and regretted selling it even though I now have bigger/better set ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
