Lidl offer
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.. Michael. "Ady" wrote in message . uk...

Have seen postings about previous Lidl offers but this looks different thanks http://www.lidl.co.uk/uk/home.nsf/pa...escope_with_Tr ipod.ar7 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. -- Andy Hewitt http://web.mac.com/andrewhewitt1/ |

A particular URL takes you to different pages depending on whether you have a geographic cookie on your computer or have entered a postcode. It's all very confusing to their customers when trying to share URLs. Try going to http://www.lidl.co.uk , clicking on "Specials" and entering the postcode (for example) SG6 1AA. Then, click on the tab marked "From Thursday 07.12". but if it's the Meade LX75 then go for it. It appears to be a Bresser model with a 90mm lens at a hundred pounds. I've no idea if that's a good buy. Mike. -- Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem |
