I would recommend you consider what you want to do with it in the long term. I own two currently, one is the obsession 18 inch and the other one is a stellarvue 130. The 18 inch gives outstanding views of almost every messier object while the Stellarvue gives incredible sharpness but not as much power. It’s on a losmandy mount which gives incredible tracking ability. So the Stellarvue I am intending to use for Astrophotography.
You might want to consider joining sites like cloudy nights where are you can get the opinions of quite a few people in the hobby and they have a very good classified section.
At 72 years of age I believe my telescope will not go outside the back yard. There are no streetlights within five miles of here; it’s dark and beautiful at night.
Every time my brother talks about the stars, he tells me (probably a few hundred times by now) about a moonless night in the Indian Ocean (he was on an aircraft carrier) where the stars were incredible. He didn’t understand what he was actually seeing then, but was impressed. Darn. Imagine that.
