loukash Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 The key concept of such a marketing strategy is: Do not ever tell them how long a "limited-time" is.

Yet they have indicated how long offers will be on for in the past? I'm guessing the 40% offer will be periodically re-introduced though, so this will likely not be the last chance we'll have (man this site is slow today) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loukash Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 They have always had discounts in the past, on various occasions. I bought every one of the v1 apps on such offer. For me, the "Universal License" is actually the most surprising new feature, and so I made use of it right away, especially at such generous discount. This "investment" will cost me about an hour or two of paid work… (Alright, I also just bought an Apple Pencil 1 for my iPad, so it will be about three hours of paid work to get all that money back.) pgraficzny and s.auler 2 Quote MacBookAir 15": MacOS Ventura > Affinity v1, v2 // MacBookPro 15" mid-2012: MacOS El Capitan > Affinity v1 / MacOS Catalina > Affinity v1, v2, v2 beta // iPad 8th: iPadOS 16.6 > Affinity v2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designer1234 Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 It would be great to know to make a final decision - purchase or not. I suppose it depends on how many people buy it on lower price? I understand it but perhaps there will be some counter then?

awakenedbyowls Posted November 19, 2022 Author Share Posted November 19, 2022 I was watching a YouTube video on some of the new features last night and people in the comments were talking about some one-off deal/error(?) on MS Store that allowed some folk in Brazil to bag the suite for the equivalent of $72? Anyway, I had a look on MS Store and it states on there that the deal will be on until the 14th Dec - don't know how reliable this but a month or so seems like what I'd expect an initial sale/intro offer to run for, which also allows for a full 30 day trial of the software before taking the plunge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Serif's Patrick Connor advised forum members NOT to expect any further reductions (i.e. NO Black Friday deals) in another thread. 14 December is quoted here: awakenedbyowls 1 Quote Ali 🙂 Hobby photographer.
