Telescope purchase

[ashok.m...@gmail.com]

Dear Friends

I am planning to buy a telescope with my recently developed interest in star gazing. I have kind of shortlisted the Astromaster 70az and also looking at a higher spec with a stretch of my budget, so that the optics is good and i can hope to view with better clarity in the next few months once the rains are over.

Being a beginner, i am of the opinion that a refractor would be the right choice, as based on what i have gone through so far on the set-ups of reflectors, and the associated alignment issues with collimation etc. 

 I need suggestions and recommendations as to where to buy it in Bengaluru.

Warm Regards
