What next to upgrade

Hi all
I have finally decided to start upgrading my gear but can't decide what to get first on my limited budget.

I have narrowed it down to either
Moonlite Focuser or

Eyepieces, I am leaning towards the Hyperion range, but can't decide whether to get a fixed focus 24mm to start my collection or get more functionality and buy the Baader 8-24mm Mk III zoom.

I have a trusty c6r F8, 1200mm, 6" refractor
My budget runs to about $500 give or take a few dollars

Does anyone have any opinions, i heard the focuser improves the scope dramatically, but eyepieces also make a big difference

I currently just use the eyepieces from the Celestron kit i purchased originally and the scope sits on a cg5 mount

I'd dearly love to upgrade the mount, say to a cgx just because, but a new mount is not within reach right now.
