mine's just the etx-90, i bought it a few years ago when it was still $595.. i'd love to get something larger but then i'd have to lug it around everywhere.. the thing i love about the etx is that it's got decent capabilities and it's portable.

i bought the telescope at a retail store, but now i get a lot of my accessories and stuff from optcorp.com, they've got a lot of great stuff.. good luck finding a case for an 8-inch, though. i'll keep my eye out for you..
