Your question is based on a wrong assumption. For this game, expansions can't be bought in any order. There's only one specific order.

Rebirth (the base game) currently has 4 expansions in total:
- Afterbirth, which requires Rebirth installed to work (duh).
- Afterbirth+, which requires Afterbirth installed to work.
- Repentance, which requires Afterbirth+ installed to work.
- Repentance+ (currently in beta), which requires Repentance installed to work.

You can't get one expansion and ignore the previous ones. And if you somehow do get it, your game will either not launch at all or you'll experience game breaking bugs all over the game. Very bad idea, don't do that.

its worth it to get all of them ofc

Go ahead and get Repentance while its on sale

I would go straight for Repentance (which should include everything else if I'm not mistaken). It adds a lot to the basic loop of the game and makes it better in every way.

All DLCs just add more items, so get them in order one by one or all at once, no reason to pick "the best" one

Repentance on its own does not include the content of the other expansions, you need to buy all of them.

How long is the sale on Rebirth for?

[Catboy Five Pebbles]

buy them all when on sale they're expensive as hell to buy when off sale
i actually sold one of my kidneys to buy repentance

[Bizarre Lad]

get all DLCs

Don't do just AB and AB+ because the changes in Repetenance for the better or worse will make you relunctant to upgrade despite realizing you're missing out on a 1/3rd of the games content. Get all three bucko

[Ablutophobia]

all of them.

[FinesseYaWife]

Get them all on sale right now. Adds so much more fun to the game. Now I can’t stop playing

My bad then, all of them would be my answer then!

There is one notable shenanigan you can pull. Get the base game until Godhead, then get up to Afterbirth+ and use the "get achievement" command that Repentance removed to get the daily challenge achievements that you can't otherwise cheese with console. Then get the rest. Technically this is "optimal" but for cowards.
