That is good price for the EON ED120. The EON ED100 /120 is the equivalent of the Skywatcher Equinox series. The EON72 mm is 'new' however. They both have the 2 speed focuser and improved 'assembly and finish'. The EON ED120 OTA is priced at $2900 while the Orion with the single speed Crayford is $4170 !
I have the Eqinox ED120 on a HEQ5 and it is an impressive scope - minimal CA and noticably brighter images then my ED100. It makes a good planatary scope. I sold my Celestron SE8 to finance it and have no regrets.
I also recently added a Stellarvue bino viewer and that makes viewing so much more relaxing and actually improves perceived detail.
I would recommend the ED120 highly esp for that price.
