The tripod is mentioned in some answers but the add indicates telescope only. does it come from amazon with a tripod or not?

The Inspire 100AZ telescope package comes with the telescope, tripod and accessories. Sincerely, Garrett at Celestron

I’m totally new to telescopes so please be kind. but when i look through this scope will things be upside down? or will they be as i should see them.

The Inspire 100AZ comes with an erect image diagonal, so when used with the eyepiece, the image will be in its correct, right-side up orientation. Sincerely, Garrett at Celestron

Does it come with a case and how strong is the tripod?

Does not come with a case at that price but one is available. Tripod is reasonably sturdy.
