reassure me please!

hi guys. i need some reassurance! just "accidently" bid on a bresser skylux 70mm refractor on ebay...part of me considers this to be a bargain but i'm not certain it was the right thing to do. anyone had any experience with the scope? it looks to be a reasonable budget scope and its only got to last a few months while i save for a decent newt. just hope i'm not wasting my money!

must say though...under this cloud cover i'll be able to see as much as i would with a giant dob!

If the auction is still active, you can ask the seller to remove your bid

£50 or £55 would be more than enough to bid assuming it's in perfect nick and under 1yr old. Here's the new price:

it's a brand new scope in box, and is substantially cheaper than the new price. i think it might be worth a punt, by the looks of it i'd get my money back if i were to sell it on. thanks for the help dude

I hope you managed to pull your bid on time.

If you were unlucky enough to won it, this cloudy night review should help to relief some distress. The mount is better than EQ1 and it comes with Kellner eyepiece which is better than Huygens found on most toy scope. It is not as too rubbish when used with a Nagler Type 6 eyepiece.
