There is a good shop in Nicosia called Planitario Vegas. Good telescopes are expensive by the way. I hope you know this

Yes, very expensive.

Have a look at this CY site that was posted a few days ago ...

Thanks I will look at those. Still in need of a scope. Astronomical if possible and a good size. Leo

Reh Leonardoh,

Quality = Money

Size = More Money

Where will you be observing? Clear Dark CY skies? .. Good, large scopes are only worth getting if you have the right seeing conditions.... otherwise you may waste money.

Are you a beginner? General advice is get a good pair of binoculars to start with if you are.

And the bottom line is what's the budget?

There is a shop on Pafos harbour - opposite the car park... Sells Meade and some other brands...

I have a scope like this one, item number 330349302378 on ebay.co.uk, which cost me around £150 and which is sitting gathering dust. If you're interested and can come down to Paralimni to see it I am prepared to let it go for Euros140.
Email me if you are interested.

by **bubblechris** » Mon Oct 26, 2009 7:37 pm

It is actually this one 320414164437 and i'll let you have it for Euros 125.
