Nick Blanc Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Just wondering, what is that one deal you didn't get while it was on offer and afterwards you regret it not buying. I know, "not buying" seems like a somewhat alien phrase here, but I'm sure there have been times. For me: SSL LMC+ Didn't go for it when it was €30 on introduction. Now I hope it goes back to that price again. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.r Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Exactly the same! I just had a quick look if it's still on intro price but nope. They didn't post any timeframe for the sale so I couldn't place it into my plannings. Live goes too quickly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc Cormier Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) ...aaaaaand back to plugins. For me it was getting the current Albion One with the version it was replacing. I forget what the price was but I swear it was close to BOGO. Edited September 2, 2021 by Marc Cormier 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarine Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Sales are such a consistently periodic thing now that I'm hard pressed to think of any such unique occurrence that it'd have left me feel regret for a substantial amount of time. The sales price is now the consumer MSRP with the inconvenience of demanding your ongoing attention and alertness to strike that deal, the cost of which is the mental energy you waste in that bullshit, a punishment for being such a small fry that you have to micromanage and optimize spendings measured in hundreds - or even tens - of $/€/£, while pro(ducer)s have the money to buy what they need to make more money, when they need it, because they make money - instead of just Excel sheets of stuff they've bought. Successful businesses don't impulse-buy stuff just because it's a "good deal", so ironically they may spend less cash on software than an enthusiast, but spend it more wisely. The consumer is a valuable customer demographic as they've been programmed to dance to the rhythm of periodical sales, and they generate discussion and awareness about the products, which also helps in selling to the pro market. Buzz is always good. The stupid thing is that the consumer-enthusiast is trading their time for virtual value in money (arbitrarily priced products), yet time is more valuable than money. Especially whatever "savings" you get from buying massive amounts of digital junk you'll probably never need nor even use. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reid Rosefelt Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Right when I was just discovering this forum, I read about Synthmaster going for about $10. But I found out a day late. Since then I've come back to this page every single day. But I have learned that 99% of deals return in time. And in most cases, they even get to be better deals. But RMX for $99! I would have gone for that. You can't find anything much rarer than a Spectrasonics sale. Too bad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
