I would get the vixen LV over the tmb planetary (most of the eBay ones are clones & might be made in the same factory but arent genuine tmb)

What is your price range, your choice of 15mm ep for general is prob fairly good, Get along to one of the asaw viewing nights to chek some diff ep's. One suggestion is astro tech paradigm 15mm 60 deg decent e.r. It has a few diff names (Matt at telescopes astronomy in SA sell thm but I forget the brand name

At f6 you prob don't require premium ep's, the ES are good value but are heavy, I prefer lighter ep's but you should try a few to see where your pref lies. Eg weight, fov, price, size, 2" or 1.25", eye relief

Doug mc has a good intro set for sale in the classifieds, it would cover most of your needs , & focal lengths (except the 4 wouldn't get muh use)
