I've got around 1500, but I already have most of the books they sell.

One book I don't own(recently recommended to me) is Psychology of Poker. Is it worth the 1600 points? I'm debating between it or the sweatshirt, which doesn't look too crappy.

Couple more questions about Stars:
How quickly does the store ship stuff? I'm moving in a month, so if this is 6-8 weeks stuff I'll hold off until I'm in the new place.

Finally, if I were instead to use my points to play in the satellite SnGs is the transfer to T$(or sale of the entry) a simple matter of asking support, or will they hassle me for a reason?

I just received the Psychology of Poker from Poker Stars and it took a little over 2 weeks. I was surprised that it arrived so quickly.

I just got their Fleece jacket and it is actually really nice. It arrived well within two weeks and surprised me when it arrived so quickly.

If you don't understand how to adjust to playing a LAG or TAG or LAP player, then Psych of Poker is good. If you play every player pretty much the same, it will be incredibly helpful. If this all sounds really basic, the book will also probably sound incredibly basic.

If Winning Low Limit Hold'em was a quality, in-depth book you'll love Psych of Poker.

Well, I thought Lee Jones' book wasn't great, but it wasn't horrible. Quality, but certainly not indepth.

Any poker book that doesn't give bad advice is probably worth buying from the standpoint that reading about poker is thinking about poker.

If Psyche is good, but basic, that'll help more than a sweatshirt.

Apparently I came off sarcastic. That wasn't my intent.

It's a good book that's seemed really basic when I read it. If you haven't thought a lot about how to play different opponents, it'll probably be a godsend.
