Once the Player Core goes on sale, will having the Pathfinder CRB be good enough to play a PFS event or will we have to purchase the Player Core?

The Organized Play team has not seen the new remastered books yet. At this time they are not complete. Once we have, and we have had a chance to review them, we will be sure to communicate with the community about our plans regarding them.

Urm...was purchasing a Core book actually ever a requirement to play either Society? I thought it was the other way around - that all players were assumed to have access to the Core books.

Always available is not same as ownership.Options in the Core Rulebook, the Pathfinder Bestiary (Second Edition), and Lost Omens: World Guide are considered always available resources regardless of ownership.
Having the rest of the paragraph would probably help, but he's right regardless when taking the final sentence as an override to the first. Seems silly to be arguing about this - of course they'll be the same ownership-optional as the Core Rulebook.
Players may use any Paizo published books or supplements they own during character creation, provided the options are valid per the Character Options document, Players residing in the same household may share owned resources. Options in the Core Rulebook, the Pathfinder Bestiary (Second Edition), and Lost Omens: World Guide are considered always available resources regardless of ownership.

"Ownership of the Core Sources is not required for Character Option use in the Pathfinder Society campaign, as long as rules are referenced from the official Pathfinder Resource Document (prd).
The Core Sources currently are: the Pathfinder Core Rulebook, Pathfinder Bestiary, and Lost Omens World Guide"
It looks like quote in question is from here and says fully:
"Players may use any Paizo published books or supplements they own during character creation, provided the options are valid per the Character Options document, Players residing in the same household may share owned resources. Options in the Core Rulebook, the Pathfinder Bestiary (Second Edition), and Lost Omens: World Guide are considered always available resources regardless of ownership."
