The "buy now" price is £250 for a used OTA? That's ¤370, at current
rates. It's not surprising that there are no bidders with a starting
price of £200.

For ¤375 you can get a new Skywatcher 127 OTA with a one year warranty
(and similar accessories), including 22% VAT.

I'm very sorry that I didn't check the dealers in Finland first John. It seems so
obvious now you mention it.

Furthermore, I have just spent the last hour Googling for the Skymax 127mm mak in
the UK. I found the lowest prices (as available via a Google search) to be as follows :
* S W Optics at £319 inc P&P
or
* Sherwoods & Rother Valley at £275 (with an assumtion of additional for postage)

Anymore for anymore ?

Thanks.

I still maintain that a £200 start price is fair :-)
