Hi Quan,
You are a PTL (Platinum Team Leader), the highest rank, so I wonder why you are asking about a 1500 VP Standing Order (SO) to maintain EA status. I will answer your question anyway. :-)
In your question you included "aside from Tcredits" but I don't think you should exclude them (leave them out) as they are valuable for bonus action VP (AVP) and MRP (Member Rewards Points; 126 MRP buys 1 Tcredit) when used for bidding at auctions, playing games and Member Listings to sell items.
Personally, I have an SO for Tcredits 125 Pack SFI Special Standing Order for $36.25USD, regular price $56.50USD, and I think I would need my head examined if I xcancelled the SO. I wouldn't think of it. I also buy more Tcredits on the side. Tcredits and the benefits helped me to better my rank to BTL again this month.
I am also a firm believer in advertising. I always have ads and visitors/traffic packages on the go. There are some traffic packages you can buy on Standing Order and you can get at least one that comes to mind to go to any Gateway; a very good selection. The Standing Order is on my Wishlist to try for different links. It is $4.99USD, runs for 30 days to any of a very good selection of Gateways and I will earn a nice 121 sales VP (SVP) for each purchase. I think the VP are great, given the price.
I think the deal for both VP and to help you to gain a higher rank due to earn both SVP and bonus AVP is the SO I have, the Tcredits 125 Pack SFI Special Standing Order. It is worth 1500 VP every month, therefore, it guarantees me EA rank every month. Every month, for as long as I have this Standing Order, I earn 100 action VP - action VP are necessary to gain rank. Then, as I noted above, there are bonus AVP.
If you do the math, by not leaving out Tcredits as a 1500 VP option, you gain these for the same SO I have: 1500 sales VP (good for EA rank or minimum sales/purchases VP required for Bronze Team Leader - BTL), 100 + 125 action VP, total 225 AVP, and 625 MRP, which will buy another 4 Tcredits.
You could go with a Tcredits 100 Pack on Standing Order but it is worth less VP at 1200 and you could fill in the difference to 1500 VP or so by getting what I mentioned, visitors/traffic packages on Standing Order. You could also use other forms of advertising.
If you seriously want to grow your business and earn, you have to consider such things as what you are paying, what you are getting for your money and both the VP you will earn and the type(s) of VP you will earn.
Never close off your options or potentially shut the door on your own success - you might as well live in a closet and not work. :)
All the best.
