Hello all,
I have a question for you guys. I am considering buying a Celestron Nexstar 8 (about a 2005 model, silver tube) with tripod, AC adapter, car adapter, 15mm, 7.5, 32mm, UHC filter, hard case and Star diagonal.
Now, is $900.00 a good price for all this?
I appreciate any help in advance.
Thanks.
Damon

Too high IMHO. The current SE has had significant improvements. Hard case or no, I'd use the money for a newun. If you can get him down to 600 or maybe 700 tops, "maybe." I really do perfer the current NS Se, though.
