Is this worth buying?

Is this worth buying and you are already playing for free? I know you get 60 days sub, but are the extras worth the money, and do I just add the code to my excising account?

If you like a good story with good quests than yes it is a good game, the combat is typical tab target, the sound is excellent, graphics good but not great, space combat is good but not great, it has your typical F2p rules although they have streamlined the game where you can skip the "filler" side quests and just concentrate on the main story line quests-if you do that than the f2p is well worth it. Without a doubt TOR and TWS have the best story lines. Play F2P for a couple of hours, read up on the differences between F2P and sub than decide, I think if you sub for one mo and than go f2p you still get some sub bonuses. Hmmm just off the top of my head the offer looks like a good deal, you get 1,025 cartel coins plus 525 coins each month
Well I could buy 60 days sub for £17.98 but this offer on the EA site is £24.99 and was wondering was the extras worth the extra.
I am thinking of subscribing but wanted to know what was the best deal.
As I live in Poland I only see prices in my local currency, Origin pack is sold for 119 PLN, while 2 months subscription is sold for 60 PLN and 1050 Cartel Coins Pack is sold for 28 PLN.
So basically I would be paying 31 PLN for five Major Experience Boosts, which makes this a very bad deal, as those can be bought for credits from other players on GTN.
However, I am aware that all those prices above can be different if you live in another country, so I suggest you to compare prices in your own currency.
1. Free level 60 char boost for one toon
2. 1050 extra cartel coins
3. 5 XP boosts for when the sub stops
Just the 1050 extra cartel coins is worth the extra 7 euros. I'm not sure about the level 60 boost, do you also get that if you just use the regular sub? If so, it isnt a spectacular deal. The answer to the level 60 boost question really determines the value of this deal.
@Dajunka - You said 2 months sub is £17.98 for you, can you check on http://www.swtor.com/buy how much 1050 Cartel Coins pack costs? And compare that to the Origin price?
1050 cartel coins would cost £5.99, so buying separate would cost 23.97, so it's a better deal than the EA bundle. I will go for the normal sub I think.
Also don't look at the cartel market. Every new cool mount/gear comes from there. And that would be ok if you could just straight up buy it with your cartel coins(you get some each month as sub), but no it comes from gamble packs. Which can be sold on galactic trade. So they turned this into official credit selling. Imo one of the worst ingameshops for sub MMO's.
