Matey - i had one of these -
not bad for a kiddies scope - espcecially at the price.
look up "Improvements for the celestron 127eq" on the interwebs
to find stacks of info on how to make it a better scope.
from my personal experience:
1.) took out the primary by removing the 6 screws om the back.
(no need to take out the secondary!)
replaced them with hex bolts and springs. Adjustment of primary is now really easy.
2.) the barlow is removable, but in practice i got better results by leaving it in and using a cheshire.
3.) focusser is a PoS and needs modifying to make it work smoothly.
there is also a lot of useful info here:
