Thanks all for your input. Based on your responses, I went ahead and purchased $19.95 FICO credit report. And my credit score has not dropped any number but it has increased + 4 points to my old score. And I am closer to 800...yay!
If creditsesame and creditkarma are giving this discrepancy, why are we even following it?
