Hi there,

The scope didn't show up on the link but if it's the Meade LX75 then go for
it.

Lidl in Ireland have that scope on offer for 599 Euro and the concensus on
the boards here was that it was worth getting..

It's actually a Bresser terrestrial scope with BAK4 prims. It'll be OK
as a multi-purpose scope, but not much use as a main astro scope. You
could get better for your money - my second hand TAL-1 was only £50 on
eBay. Spend a small amount more and get a Skywatcher.
