When it was announced they were going to offer permanent accounts again, I was considering it until I read this...

It's almost here—the Permanent Account sale! For a limited time only, you can purchase a Permanent Account for only $175.

Okay, seriously? Last time it was offered it was something like $99, a year later it's this much more? *sigh* Before it was the same price as 5 years of paid account, now it's nearly 9? Wow. Even with it offering a few more amenities, that's still *really* expensive.

Anyone thinking of getting one or already have one and are very happy with it?

If this had been offered a few months ago when there were $2 to the pound I would have so gone for it. Now there's only $1.5 to the £ so I'm not sure, it's not even been 2 years since I started using LJ so much so I think not, probably.

yeah- it's just TOO much and I'm not sure I'd get anywhere near my money's worth. $99 I'd spend without thinking- it's $20 for a year and $10 for extra userpics (I'm addicted to them) so I'd break even in just over 3 years. I don't know if I'll still be here in 3 years, but there's a good chance. But $175?!?! That's just.... wow... a lot of money.
