Looks like Canaan has some more specs on the A8 up: https://canaan.io/product/avalonminer-821/

Hope to pick a few of these up and get my TH/s up there towards the top of the stats.

With the PSU's included, wonder if they will be sold for $2500?

Yeah the picture isn't correct - that's the 741 picture.
The prototype A8 I saw in September included a PSU as part of the miner

I am wondering if you can shed light onto the S9 vs 821.

Per the specs, the S9 comes out on top in terms of efficiency so I assume the first choice would be to go with the S9 that is currently available.

I have read that people have been anti-bitmain but what are the exact reasons for this?

What would be the benefits of getting say a 761 instead of an S9.

Essentially, what would be the reasons why someone would forego an S9, which has better efficiency and power for a 761 / 741

We're comparing the Avalon 8 vs the S9.

But a big factor would be price...even if the A8 includes the PSU. Bitmain has made their move, now it's Canaan's turn tomorrow.
