Try the 200" that's in California, on top of a mountain called Palomar.

If that's out of your price range, then we need to know what you plan to do with it: planetary research (no more looking at Pluto, BTW), deep space objects, photography, solar, etc.

And there's always the question about availability of the all-mighty dollar.
