Quoted from Chuckwebster:Premium for me- hopefully will arrive this week. I like the added features and art is fantastic. is it worth the price? who knows, but I plan on making this part of my permanent rock collection. Over time i'll forget about the price difference.
Agreed - once you have the premium home and are enjoying it, justifying the price difference argument becomes moot. The focus switches to enjoyment of the game and maintenance. I don't see anything on the premium causing a significant concern here. If you expect to sell the game within 3 years, you'll need to factor in price depreciation of $1k vs $500 for a pro. Solid advice is to buy whichever model you prefer playing, which you already have. Up the Irons on your purchase.
