The C8, if I am not mistaken, is on an equitorial mount, whatever that
is, right? This has been suggested to other in the past asking for
similar advice. The responses have almost always been that equitorial
mounts are too difficult for a beginner to manage. What say you?

Alan's advice is good and you should heed it. Trying to locate,
evaluate, and figure out how to operate a used C-8 is not something I
would recommend for a complete beginner, at any age. You would pretty
much be staring at something you don't understand and saying "Well, I
guess that looks okay."
