  • Special Edition PLUS DVD Vs Download

    In US Dollars [based on today exchange rate market] Strings: $507 Woodwind: $415 Brass: $407 Total: $1329 Vs Vs Special Edition PLUS DVD = $1080 Why the difference? You could say that one buy separate package will cost more... But what about some of the very 1st "loyal" customer who buy the earlier downloadable, at that time, you also said that the DVD will not be planned and are download only. Well, I fall into that trap... thankfully, I only buy 1 Brass standard + as a test. Plus... I also own a lot others like solo Violin, Sax, Chamber strings etc... Can I hope that I will get Special Edition PLUS DVD at a special price? God, I almost forgot the phrase "never buy xxx twice" Thanks Sonny

    A DVD version of the PLUS library was done on request of  alot of our users.

    The summary price of the FULL version of the three download sections is 865 €. (330 + 270 +265)

    The price of the FULL version od the DVD product is 835 €.

    So there is not much difference.

    The bigger difference if you convert it to Dollar depends on the insane exchange rate of Euro/Dollar.

    Especially the last weeks.

    We can't adjust our Dollar prices more than once a year, but the next "Dollar price increase" will be in a few weeks.

    best

    Hi Herb, Thanks for the response. The exchange rate maybe up and down but the whole DVD for $1080US I think is clear, and if I buy separate package in US, the price will never at $1080US. The figure will likely at the rate I mentioned at the 1st post. So the fact is, the way VSL conduct business made me hesitate buying ANYTHING from now on, compare to my 1st year with VSL, I bought many. For example, if you were to release the DVD at the 1st place, I'll buy it, no question. If you release a DVD by request, so most request likely will be users who never buy download products And how about users like me, who already buy a brass extended plus [standard]? if I want a DVD, I have to buy the DVD and lost 135 Euro ? Not to mention, I already have FULL Sax, Chamber, Solo Violin, Special woodwind etc, If I buy a SE+ DVD, I have to [again, along with the 1st SE] paid twice for the samples. I also bought Horizon concert Guitar but never bother buying download concert Guitar just for the same reason. This is not a criticize, it's your business and you can run it what ever you want, but to make a customer happy, you should prepare for all situation. So, the solution is you should re-open a subscription packages, and allow users to BUY only the instruments and articulations they want and avoid what they are already have. Thanks and good luck to your business, Sonny

    Thank you Herb for passing along this very important piece of information, especially for US customers thinking about making a purchase within the next few weeks. [:)]
