Reid Rosefelt Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 (edited) Are you tired of sales that apply only to some products? Are you tired of sales that have ending dates? Wouldn't it great if there was a company that lowered prices on all their products? Permanently? You bet it would! https://realitone.com/ Here at Realitone, we hear you. So we've permanently lowered prices on all products ... by 95 cents! That's right! So instead of Realivox Blue being $149.95, now it's just $149! Sunset Strings was $299.95 - but now just $299! RealiBanjo? Say goodbye to four digits of messiness with $59.95, and say hello to $59! Now, I know what you're thinking: "But Mike! Sure, this looks cleaner. But how are you going to stay in business with such a drastic drop in income???" I hear you! Heck, I'll probably have to start buying off-brand ramen, instead of the fancy stuff. But when you're as dedicated to your customers as I am, then by golly, these are the sorts of sacrifices you have to make. But Wait! There's More! Sure, I take pride in going my own path with this permanent price-slashing thing. But it can be lonely being the leader in the cause of Pricing Justice. So if everyone else is having a Labor Day Sale, then ... well, I want to have one, too. So with our Realitone Labor Day Sale, we're slashing prices even further! And ... with the extra 95 cents off, that makes these are our lowest sale prices ... EVER! (I'm hoping the people who bought during the last Black Friday sale don't get mad!) Sunset Strings - Was $299.95. Now on sale, but not at $199.95. We're talkin' just $199! Realivox Blue with Wordbuilder - Was $149.95. So is it on sale for $99.95? Heck no! We're slashin' it to just $99! Realivox Ladies Lite is on sale for as low as $99! That's how much we care about you, our valued customers! Hip Hop Creator and RealiDrums are each half off! Just $99! Amazing! Fingerpick as low as $79! RealiBanjo is just $39! RealiWhistle is just $29! Acoustic Lite is just $29! Screaming Trumpet - Featuring Wayne Bergeron is just $99!

Reid Rosefelt Posted September 3, 2022 Author Share Posted September 3, 2022 (edited) I think I remember Mike Greene doing a Black Friday Sale where he briefly RAISED the prices on all RealiTone libraries. But you had to move fast-- or the prices would go back down again. Maybe I dreamed this. Does anybody remember if this really happened?

Christian Jones Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I thought ramen was already off-brand by design 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveiv Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Thank goodness they waited Friday night for the announcement. Markets would shake like a belly dancer with such drastic financial move out of nowhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't remember that, but I wouldn't put it past him - he's got a unique sense of humour. Can't remember who it was, but they did do some Halloween promotion - something along the lines of 'Halloween means scary prices' and increased prices (very temporarily).

Marc Cormier Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 It looks like a pretty decent sale on right now, actually. I don't remember if the prices have been this low before - perhaps they have, but it's still a sale. Plus, there's a pre-release price on a new string plugin: https://realitone.com/products/nightfall-pre-release Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleer Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 And they’re pretty good instruments. Pretty pretty good. Mike Greene is one of the most dedicated devs around (and VI Control host). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mettelus Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Not sure if this was ever shared here, but at the start of the pandemic Mike offered refunds for people economically impacted. I forget the exact details of that now, but it was definitely one of those "above and beyond" moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you say negative stuff about a vendor here on the forum, you really should back it up with facts! Otherwise it just comes across as sour grapes and venting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
