Hi, I'm looking for advice in buying a telescope, I'm looking at buying

Sky-Watcher 200 Explorer 8inch (OTA) Newtonian Reflector Telescope.

http://www.warehouseexpress.com/buy-sky-watcher-200-explorer-8inch-ota-newtonian-reflector-telescope/p1017013

Can anyone advise me on this, would it be recommended? its my first scope and i'm new to the hobby, so I want to buy a good scope, I'm looking to spend about 300 euro(ish) so the above scope inc shipping is coming in at that, could anyone recommend anything else or should I go ahead with this?

Thanks,

Mick.

Hi there. This forum is just for people having problems with boards, rather than for general queries. However, if you start a thread over on the Astronomy & Space forum, the folks over there should be able to help you.
