Value is different for each of us. AGM value is in zero maintenance, and virtually no corrosion. I have the money, I'll spend it on convenience. Price is a pretty narrow definition of 'money's worth.'
The extra money I spent on an Optima Blue-Top AGM battery was well spent, and it included a large number of advantages like no degas (safe to mount indoors), deeper discharge without damage, (see FullMosey abvove) etc. etc. too many to list here. I'd go AGM again in a heartbeat for any application where I can afford the extra cost - I'll get it back.
