76mm reflector vs 70mm refractor? Both are at sale at $200 I'm starting my astronomy hobby and looking for a beginner telescopes to start with. I've searched couple websites and found these 2 within my budget. 

I know for a fact that refractors gives you sharper and clearer images but its original price is actually cheaper than the reflector telescope. I will list the specifications below. It would be really appreciated if you guys can tell me the relative benefits and drawbacks of each.

The accessory pack includes three 1.25" eyepieces,​ a finder-scope, an erecting eyepiece for terrestrial viewing, an adjustable aluminium tripod with accessory tray and a moon filter, which reduces the brightness of the moon and makes surface details sharper and clearer.
Personally, I would go for neither of those. $200 is a bit steep for such a small refractor or reflector telescope (I am assuming this is USD?) 

For a budget of $200, I would be looking at some second hand telescopes, as you will likely be able to pick up a 90mm refractor or 130mm reflector second hand with that budget. 

It also depends what you want to do with it. For simple observations of planets and the moon, it will be fine, but don't expect to see much detail with such a small aperture. The optics on these aren't fantastic either so DSO's will not look great, although some of the brighter ones will be viewable. 

So my answer would be don't get either of them, shop around second hand places and most importantly, read reviews on telescopes before buying them. If you can, join an astronomy group in your area and have a look through their scopes and see how you get on.
