What items are worth a buy from Cursula, if any?
Asking because trying out badge is tempting, but I don't usually like to mess around with curse. I just have a huntsman and i'm already unluckily getting jammed enemies.

Jammed enemies actually drop more casings, so I usually like to play with a little bit of curse.
That said, it's really up to personal preference on which items you buy from her. The Wax wings are pretty powerful, I'd go for those if they're available.

Shotgun Full of Love, Sixth Chamber if you have a good active, Wax Wings, Badge, Stuffed Star, Elder Blank, Bracket Key, Gunslingers Ashes as well...but I do love me some curse, keep in mind.

Really, depending on situation, any item she sells can have use, but just generally the extra curse isn't worth it.

Why Sixth Chamber only if you have a good active? I'd get that if I ever had curse, or wanted to have a cursed run, especially from Cursula.

Shotgun full of love for sure, even if you get jammed enemies you can alway charm them!

Bracket Key is always the winner.

I like the Badge. It summons a little police officer companion that shoots enemies. When he dies you can either talk to him which will cause him to disappear while raising your damage and curse, or just finish the floor which makes him respawn.

The extra damage is always the better choice for me.

I often buy only Wax Wings, guns I can actually use effecitvely (for me that's shotgun full of love), the Badge and blanks (only if i need them for an upcoming boss or to raise my curse from 0, which does have some advantages). However, in case multiple ''favorite'' items are for sale, I only buy one of two to prevent getting too much curse (the bad stuff scales exponentially).
Most of the items are pretty good.

She usually sells a heart container. Buy. It.

A little curse is actually good cuz it's extra money.

Keep in mind that each +1 curse includes the effect of -1 coolness, which will reduce the chance and quality of drops after completing rooms.
Of course, the Sixth Chamber gives +2 coolness per curse, effectively reversing this effect.

Whaaaaat, he respawns?
Oh, I ALWAYS buy the heart container. It's worth it. ^^

Last time I took it, it lost me my run and I regretted it immensely. Jammed enemies are difficult to deal with in Hollow and up.
Jammed enemies are nothing. You just need to kill all the normal enemies first. Focusing the jammed ones are like hitting the tank instead of the DPS. Don't be a dumb raid boss.

The heart container is always worth it unless you have the ring of miserly protection or you hit that curse threshold.

Well, alright, i'll take your word for it. I'm in a great run right now with 2 A tiers and 1 S tier weapon and just got into the green demon door in the mine; she's selling a heart container for only 19 casings.

Edit: It ended up being a good call. I got like 2 or 3 jammed enemies total through chambers 4 and 5. I also got my very first past kill after bringing planar lead to the blacksmith for the first time.
