Sadly, even at this price, I think that they have shot themselves in the face.
You have to buy 3 of these to be able to use your piddly $25 voucher, which pretty 
much makes it useless, and when you consider that you used to be able to 
get plugins for $14.99 during a sale, most who are aware are not likely to bite
at the $30.99 price point!

It seems to me that it's better to sell 10,000 plugins at $14.99
than 1,000 at $30.99...but hey, I'm no rocket scientist (yet :P)

Depends on what you have.

If someone doesn't have the Amek Console, BB MS, and SHMC class A....that is a fantastic deal.  None of those have ever been "$15 plugins"

So ~$23 / pop sounds pretty good

Those of us that already have them paying at least the min $25-30 they took to get them (even with a $75 voucher that cost an arm and a leg to get to)...deal isn't so fantastic.

What really needs to be considered by these companies is that NOBODY "needs" any of these.
They are "impulse buys" for most, and the higher the price, even if on sale, the less likely people
are to buy.

Some may think that this is "still a great deal", others know that's it's really not such a great deal,
because of previous sales, and because eventually it WILL be less, and if you don't really "need it",
you are most likely to wait!

Not me, I needed the Amek Console.  Not having it was ruining my life previously.  I paid the $50 so I could continue to sleep at night again.  Sadly a month later it hit $31  🤣

 

But I'm also in the camp where now that I have everything on that list, anything seems like a want, and if it is more than $15 hard to justify it.   But that isn't limited to PA plugins either though.

I've been waiting for this (something I would want for > $25).  Purchased AMEK 9099 with the Soundwide Intro Bundle for $55.98 after applying $25 monthly voucher.

I don't see myself using the voucher much in the future.  The $15 deals were easy on the budget.  $50 minimums take a lot more thought.

They know that.  It has yet to sink in to us.   I'm starting to delete more plugins that I never use.

I'm cured from PA G.A.S., so now, let me see what other companies are selling...

You know, I've thought that too but there's not much on sale by any company that's really exciting me.

The things on my want list from PA have not gone on sale in a looooong time. That is why I went to 4Evah29.

Same here...

I have picked up 2 sale items (I think) since the changeover 

That's 2 more than me.  Edit: Correction I picked up 2 during the merger sale...

and one 4Evah29.

So far one 4Evah29.  Will end up with at least 3 before I bail.

They're not particularly bad prices, but given all the great deals I've previously seen from PA, I'm really feeling no urge to pull the trigger on any of these.. 

I get for some people that might want all 3, with the loyalty voucher they're ok deals..

But PA has turned into a bit of a yawn fest for me lately.. They're more an IgnoreWare developer than anything else for right now, mainly interested in structuring sales only aimed and useful to newbies.. 

Fingers crossed for a mega sale that actually has deals again.. I miss the old days where PA deals were epic and didn't suck!

I don't know if I got to the point where I have everything, but the deals on the last weeks were really underwhelming to me.

GAS almost got me!!. But, I resisted after adding then deleting Amek from my basket. I don’t need yet more unused plugins..

Depends on your taste and workflow.

I use that thing on almost every track as it is about the only console strip that has usable and pretty flexible channels across the board coupled with low CPU usage.

For me it is that plugin that gets used while all the others that came before it collect dust
