Hi terranaut, Andrews have a good reputation and have been around a long time so should be no worries. Probably all you would need straight off is maybe a cheshire collimator to keep a check on your optics alignment. Andrews have one for $69 which should be fine. If your not familiar with collimation search " Astrobaby collimation" and have a read on her site. It pretty easy once you get your head around it. All Newtonians need a tweek every now and then. You've picked a great starter scope that will be good for many years. I would just use the eyepieces that come with it and eventually you will probably decide to upgrade.
Cheers, Richard
