Thanks for the reply. And which kit are you talking about? I am willing to buy this kit which is only $33 and comes with a moon filter but I don't know enough about telescopes yet to determine whether the eye pieces it comes with are an upgrade from what i already have. The case itself is not to shabby either.

Don't expect million dollar views with your telescope however. Even under the best conditions most deep sky objects will look like green or smokey gray blobs.

I figured as much, I am fully aware that I won't being viewing some NASA quality photos, in fact all I want is to see more stars and craters on the moon and hopefully Jupiter and Saturn. But I just want to know if for the money the scope itself is trash or not.

Also nevermind I realized you probably mean this kit yea way too expensive, cost almost as much as my scope. But yea that case is dope.

EDIT: Hmmm maybe i wont even see craters on the moon which would be a bit disappointing.
