This comes up so often that I think it would be appropriate if we assembled all the advice we can come up with as a community. How do you pick out a sextant? Who are the dealers in new sextants? How do we select older sextants on ebay? What are the pitfalls? What I'm thinking here is we'll put together all the advice we can and put a link to it on the main NavList page.
