Celestron trailseeker 80 OR Vanguard endeavour hd 82a (1 Viewer)

Hi, I'm looking for a best bang for the buck scope, and I have narrowed my search between those two scopes. I have read both positive and negative reviews about the Vanguard, but only a few about the trailseeker, almost all of them with a very good result.

Now I got a Ultima 80 borrowed from a friend and I think that for 200€ is a great piece of equipment,but I want something better.

I know that regarding the Vanguard is more a matter of luck, maybe optics will be better but quality controls are some sort of lottery, regarding the trailseeker it is about 100€ cheaper here in Spain, got no ED glass, but the few reviews (from Amazon, not very reliable for me....) are very positive.

Can somebody please help me to throw some light in to the deep and dark abyss of choosing the right scope?

Any help will be very appreciated,

Jose
