The Meade yolk & skywatchers mount are not good, the celestron on tripod is better, you can find the odd 70az on gumtree for cheaper if you look
As you're in Sydney check andrewscom.com.au, they have the 80mm /900 on az3 mount (more stable alt/as mount) for 249 on sale, a better telescope on better mount

Usually with a scope like this you get 2 eyepieces, the larger one will be fine to use(20 or 25mm) you may want to get one to replace the 10mm ep often sold (plastic rubbish)
You may want to geta 6-8mm eyepiec for lunar /planet views..
