I will be staying with these scopes, But i have been offered a trade a Tak 152 for the Astro Physics what would you do?

[Kaptain Klevtsov]

Swap for the Tak., sell it and pay off my mortgage.

Captain Chaos

Seriously I don't know anything about these high end 'scopes., but the Tak has less aperture?

[Jamie]

Don't get me started..... :nono:

KEEP THE ASTROPHYSICS!!!!!!

[Brass n glass]

I agree - how many APs are there in the UK anyway?

[tom.yates]

Think you guys are right.

[daz]

Has everything else gone now Tom? I remember seeing a picture that looked like several people's collection!!!

[Jamie]

YEP

[Brass n glass]

It must be worth almost as much as most other SGL scopes put together.

[daz]

Tom doesn't mess around with his scopes!!

In Wales last year, he told us how one of his APO's had rolled off his dining room table and (fortunately) landed on the dew shield. At nights, he cuddled it!!!

[Jamie]

You have got to bring the AP to the SP OK.....

[tom.yates]

OK Jamie will do, I can see it now £ 15 quid this time around Jamie i want at least £20
