Recomendations for spotting scope in the budget range of $100-$150?

I have the older rubber armored version of this:
http://www.celestron.com/browse-shop/sport-optics/spotting-scopes/c90-mak-spotting-scope

great scope! fully multi-coated, 90mm aperture and very short body. the only thing you need to do is buy a variable eyepiece, which will run you about $100 for a good entry level model.

for variable zoom eyepiece, I have this:

and then I use this mount:

it's not your standard mount, but with teh built in slow motion controls, it's great for panning targets without overshooting and also makes, with use of your C90, for good use to look at the planets at night. :cool:
 
I have not been disappointed with the Celestron but you have to get it in the right price point to see 22's at 100 yards, bought a cheaper model and had to return it just not good enough
