ZOOM REFLECTOR 2 PLUS
Or you could get the 12mm and the 18mm, plus the barlow, for a total of $150, and effectively get 18, 12, 9 and 6mm for a pretty decent collection of eyepieces at a good price. They make a 12mm that would give you a good start for your collection, at some point another $30 will buy you the GSO ED 1.25" barlow and then you'll have 12mm and 6mm, roughly 100x and 200x in your scope, plus the zoom. They're $60 with free shipping and they're pretty darned good for the money.
ZOOM REFLECTOR 2 SERIES
My favorite lower priced eyepiece are the Starguider series from Agena Astro. One option, if you can afford it, so get a decent zoom (do your research well as they vary quite a bit in quality) and one decent eyepiece. The zoom will give you a view about equal to that of a decent Plossl in terms of field of view, the Plossl will probably give a little better image, so it's just a matter of your budget and desire.
With a dob that's a big issue, with a scope on an EQ mount with tracking not so much. Lots of people use zoom eyepieces and like them, the main limitation of most of them is narrow field of view. Given that, chances are you don't really need the barlow. Optimize your setup for 100x-200x and you will cover 95 percent of your needs. Between atmospheric seeing and your aperture chances are you're not going to go above 200x very often.
