Post by IceAngel »

Hello everyone.. I am currently looking for a used 80mm refractor / MCT.. :wink:

coz i am a beginner, so i seek advices from most of the pros here to guide me and they advise to look for MCT or 80mm refractor for a start..

so is there anyone who is kind to let go their used refractor or MCT?? :D

*ps. my budget is around $200 - $500* :oops:

For S$500, you'll usually get only the optical tube assembly and basic accessories. You'll still need a couple of hundred more for a tripod/mount though. There is an 80mm available, I can fix you up with the owner if you're interested. It's a Stellarvue 80mm Refractor.

I have a friend upgrading from WO Meg80 to something bigger, but he's asking for 1K, don't know if it's in your budget.

IceAngel - I guess Chee Chien (acc) wants to sell his Guang Sheng 80mm refractor.. It should be a good beginner telescope for you.. Why don't you message him.. you could check the following link..
