Save $50 on the Gskyer 600x90mm AZ refractor telescope when you get it from Amazon. Fully coated optics combined with a 600mm focal length and 90mm aperture mean you get great views of objects like stars, moons and planets. An adjustable tripod and eyepieces mean you're able to have a varied and successful stargazing experience too.

Here's where we get into the nuts and bolts and scope out the specs to see what makes this a deal worth cashing in on. Naturally, if you're in the market to invest heavily in a telescope to maximize your stargazing experience and you want all the bells and whistles on a top-of-the-range telescope, this might not be the deal for you.

However, you can still get good quality, clear views of the night sky, have the necessary extras to enjoy your astronomy experience, wherever you are and make the most of a $50 discount. The 90mm aperture means plenty of light is able to pass through the lens meaning you can see your targets clearly. The 600mm focal length means you're able to get a wide field of view, great for looking at stars and objects like the moon and planets.

Combine that with fully coated optics lenses and you get a good quality final view of whatever it is you choose to look at. For your money, you also get an adjustable tripod and three eyepieces offering 24x, 60x and 120x magnifications. 

So this telescope is actually worthwhile given the price with discount and the number of positive reviews it has received. It's actually a pretty good budget telescope under $500 The specs are impressive if what you're looking for is something to view the stars, moon and other planets. The price is good too so we think this is a deal worth getting.
