Meade 10 Starfinder for $350 on eBay. The condition of items purchased on eBay can be uncertain and it may be worth the wait to save up for a higher quality telescope.

Is this a good deal? I'm not too familiar with older telescope models such as Starfinder... now if only that was a LX200R for $350 :(

Jeez. You're a braver man than I for looking at an item such as a telescope on eBay. I don't know how anyone knows the condition of items they buy.

Though boy, if I could pick up a 10" scope for $350, I'd be real happy.

Are you going to drive to Georgia to pick it up? Says pick up only.

Seriously, if you can save up your money to get a better telescope do it. It will be worth the wait. I've bought a telescope on ebay for a few hundred bucks and deeply regret it. Wish I had waited. :(
