yes, VinSNR is right. C8s are dirt cheap nowadays. You can get from Singapore anytime, with prices lower than those from America and what more, without the hassle of airport restrictions and what-nots.

Wow can't imagine KingKong (roarrrr) carrying a C8 and walking out of the jungle. Ok joking.

Getting a C8 is a good opportunity to learn collimation as it never performs properly unless collimated (to the seeing) and they lose collimation so easily.

Even primary mirror movement during focussing causes critical collimation to be lost.
