You're ignoring the changes between the revisions.
GG: Groundbreaking. Some serious inconsistencies but who cares? Thank you GG for bringing this into the world.
Version 2.0: Minutia reigns! A micromanaging nightmare.
Version 3.0: The 3.0 books were very tight. Nearly anything you could think of doing, there was a way to figure out how to do it. And it never took 30 hours of research or arguing. But there were some serious exploits and balance issues.
Version 3.5: Corrected many of the serious exploits like Hold Person and many of the 'buff' spells and many other balance issues.
The difference between 2 and 3 was like night and day. Anyone with half an elf would have bought the set. And 3.5 (the update to 3) was virtually demanded by the fans due to exploits and min/max problems. I don't hear any clamoring for another version.
Go ahead and buy them if you want, but I think everyone will be happy with 3.5 for years, and anyone with 4.0 books might just be thrown out into the snow and called a n00b.
