I personally don't think it's worth the cost.
There are plenty of SEO plugins/mods/hacks/tips for Vbulletin freely available on vBulletin.org Forum - The Official vBulletin Resource! and vBulletin FAQ.
The only major benefit of VBSEO, imo, is the URL rewritting. But Zoints (free) can do it just as well. It has a social bookmarking feature too but how many times is that going to be used on your forum?
VBSEO also provide a decent google sitemap plugin for vbulletin but that is actually provided as a free download from their website.
VBSEO isn't a one stop one click solution for optimising a message board. It helps but there are about a dozen other things you should be doing in order to optimise your board.

why?
Because it does so much so easily
None of the other seo plugins come anywhere near it and personally I value my time and my sanity.
With the other hacks you end up messing about and you never get anything close to the level of seo readiness nor do you get all the social networking stuff

Time over money..
I just don't think it's worth the fee for what it does. The costs are too high are there are free alternatives which do as good a job.
If you have the time to spare then I'd recommend SEO'ing your board yourself everytime.
It depends as well on which topic your message board is about. If the topic receives a high number of searches, then VBSEO is probably worth it. But if your board is about something such as music or sport, then it won't be as benefical.

It's actually less if you have more than one license
I like the tags extension, but I wasn't that impressed with their SEO thing
