Telescopes
Telescopes don’t really get too crazy until one wants to get into astrophotography (assuming we want an APO at that point, not before). At that point staying in the four digits is an accomplishment in itself…
But I did learn something when I bought a binoviewer for my telescope, I had to buy double the eyepieces and that was a bit hit that I didn’t fully think out
Did you expect telescopes to be cheap or did you expect astronomy to be easy?
