I bought a fire horse and a camel - I love to role play and change mounts depending on what/where I am questing.
I cancelled my sub and am now using left over crown on DLCs. The sub bonuses are just meh to me.
The other must have item, in my opinion, is the pack that lets you play any race in any alliance. I think it is called the Adventurer's Pack (used to be the Explorer Pack). I say this because I want to be able to pick my race and alliance as I see fit.
And, if you don't have a mount, get one of those. Nothing else, it is a cheap way to get 50 bag slots over time.

Someone said not to bother with buying a mount because you can get one in game, but I wondered if I would have the gold (or other resource(s)) to actually buy one. Are they expensive and readily available in towns, or should I actually buy one with Crowns?

Thanks for the tip!
Seriously,..you cant use your own likes and dislikes to actually figure out what you want? You need to ask someone else?
Just go into the store and look at everything there.Buy what you want,not what someone else tells you you should buy.
I dont men to sound rude or anything,it's just that surely you know your own mind.

The Imperial Edition and the Imperial City are two different things. The city is a DLC adding a new PvP-enabled zone in the middle of Cyrodiil (rather emptyish nowadays, so it wouldn't be my first choice of DLC to buy). The Imperial Edition adds a playable Imperial race, a horse and a bunch of other fluff. It doesn't come with any real game content.
I'd save up 10k gold for a basic horse and keep the crowns for DLC when you're bored with the base game, but that's just me. 10k isn't prohibitively expensive, just sell a stack of flowers and other crafting mats and you'll soon be able to afford it.

Getting 10k gold for a base horse in game is easy. Quest, steal/fence stuff, sell junk, etc., and you'll have it fairly fast. Also, DLC (though as another stated, Imperial City should not be at the top of that list).
Thank you for the helpful tips and advice.If you're on PC, I'd advise you to install two add-ons: Master Merchant and AwesomeGuildStore. It'll be much easier to track prices and search guilds stores if you have them. Btw, which platform and server are you on? Some of us might be able to help you ingame.
