Better late than never?
These rate really well and are $75 with coupon. The camel suggests they've only been lower once in the last year....

I bought it and it wasnt bad but no better than my Celestron 25x70 Binoculars. Yes- you will have to spend a bit more if you want a good telescope.

Get a 10" dobsonian from Craigslist.
Tons of them for sale all the time.
Small enough to move around, yet big enough to actually see something.

Go to offerup or Craigslist and look for a used Dobsonian. Most are in the 8" size and those will perform really well in viewing planets and the moon. The best planets to look at are Jupiter,...

This is probably one of the best 70mm refractor telescope kits you can get for the price, but this is still NOT an endorsement. I tend to recommend a really good pair of astronomy binoculars around...

I had a similar Celestron, and I feel a good pair of binoculars (Celestron SkyMaster, for example) is comparable in price and more functional.

Not a "good" scope or tripod by any means; but if you want to look at the moon, you'll enjoy it.
