…is another man’s good fortune.
I was fortunate enough to pick up an Orion 10-inch SkyQuest Dob, Orion 9 and 25 mm plössls, a Celestron 3.6mm plössl, and an Orion DeepView 35mm multi-coated lens for a measly $200 at a “we’re getting divorced get this the hell out of our house” sale.
Needs a little cleaning up but it’s all in GREAT shape! Now if I could only get first light for the brand new ETX125 AT I got for $200 two years ago at a clearance sale, I’d be happy!

I love the title of your blog. I am writing as a total novice and crass capitalist. I have a recently launched site selling large astronomy binoculars, and I want to add interesting content for customers, beyond just “here it is, buy it”. Do you have any thoughts on the use of binoculars (50 - 100 objective) for astronomy?
Thanks,
Ted

are you interested in heling some students by donating a small telescope to Sri Lanka?
