So, I have bought a lot of sourcebooks recently, and I can only afford to get one more. But all of the choices of sourcebooks that I obviously want, I've bought already. So I've looked at all of the sourcebooks that I don't have yet, and the ones below are the sourcebooks that I am either wanting to purchase or preorder. But I can only get one more realistically with my current budget. So which one should I get?
It's all down to taste, with those books. What are you going to use? What do you enjoy?
Four are setting books. Which setting are you going to make a campaign for next?
Personally, I'd avoid Deck of Many things, because that's a deep dive on a magic item. If it were going to be useful, you wouldn't need to be asking.
Bigby's is a deep dive in giants. Are you going to be doing a campaign that heavily involves giants any time soon? If not, then there's no point to it.
I'd recommend figuring out what you want to do...then what you need to buy will become apparent by itself.

If you're not willing or able to to discuss in good faith, then don't be surprised if I don't respond, there are better things in life for me to do than humour you. This signature is that response.
You could also wait. IIRC, there's usually a Black Friday sale in November so if you're on a budget, holding out for that might be better than buying anything right now, especially if you're not planning on using the book immediately. Assuming that you're talking about buying on DDB.
Or you could hold off buying anything for now and saving your money for the new PHB, MM, DMG coming out next year (late). Or the revised Phandalin extension coming out soon.

Find your own truth, choose your enemies carefully, and never deal with a dragon.
"Canon" is what's factual to D&D lore. "Cannon" is what you're going to be shot with if you keep getting the word wrong.
