I have to say, I'm a sucker for behind-the-scenes stuff. I didn't buy the Vault because its mostly "the history of Star Wars swag", but I'll probably buy the couple "Art of" books that I'm still missing and if they ever do companion books for ESB and ROTJ the way they did for "The Making of Star Wars" I'd buy those in a heartbeat, and stuff like that "Sculpting a Galaxy" looks somewhat interesting (I'll probably pass since I already have "The Best of the Lucasfilm Archives" which is the same thing really, except instead of crappy PT on the side you get cool Indiana Jones stuff).
But as for anything else, I can't really see myself ever buying SW merchandise; to be honest, I haven't been a SW merchandise-buyer since I was a kid really. I don't read the books or comics since they all suck, and I'm not a gamer. And I really do not understand this "collecting" thing, theres really nothing special about the toys, its such a waste of money. I mean I can understand the odd purchase if there is a really well-done sculpt that you'd like to display, I mean I have more than a couple McFarlane products, but so few Star Wars sculpts are worth owning. People like Steve Sansweet scare me, frankly.

I think the last Star Wars purchase I made that wasn't a VHS/DVD or a behind-the-scenes book was when TPM came out and I bought a bunch of the movie tie-in comics and the novelisation.

Of course I will become more interested, but I'm not going to spend money on useless junk.
