15mm and 9mm GSO plossls came with my 8" GSO reflector. They were good to get started, but I don't use them any more. I'm holding them for public viewing, but even for that I have found I'd rather use my 8-24mm Seben zoom for quick setup and framing of targets. Early on, I bought a GSO 6mm plossl and found the eye relief to be very short - it was too uncomfortable for me.
Try a 20mm Televue plossl. It's a world of difference compared to the GSO plossl. The 20mm regularly comes on the second-hand market for a good price. I also have the 32mm Televue plossl and also am happy with that. For short focal lengths (10mm and below), you may be happier with something other than a plossl. I like the Vixen LV 6mm and 10mm eyepieces.
Of course, you can spend many more dollars for eyepieces, but I think you'll do better with some eyepieces in the $100-200 range, then a bunch in the $15-30 range.
By the way, with a reasonable 2x barlow, you'd only need half those eyepieces anyway.
