man... 12.5" Portaball next to a RV. It will be a dream to own these item here.

Good buy but a far reach for me.

Hmm.. how does a Nova mirror perform?

Nova mirrors have excellent reputation. Back in the older days, if you can't wait for a Zambuto or Pegasus, you go find a Nova. Not that you can get the Nova off the shelf, but it just doesn't take so long compare to Zambuto or Pegasus.

It is a good mirror. I would have gone for it if not for my 11". At that price, it is a steal.

I saw a sale pending on the scope. I got a strange feeling that it was Arief.

This Portaball is built for quite a tall person! And shipping it back to Singapore would be an issue.
