Trying to get the A-List drummers on sale, but get all kinds of pricing weirdness. $139 in the shop, $297 in the cart and $207 at checkout....

I'm seeing exactly the same thing in the Euro shop. It adds the individual devices instead of the bundle. Did you report it?

That means if you want to buy only power drummer, you don't need to pay 139$. If that single cost 46$. No need to show any bundle

Yep, got the same thing. I actually didn't look properly at checkout and actually paid 207€ via PayPal in the end. Sent a mail to Props, lets see what happens.

I love how the upgrade price for the rig bundle went from $79 to $199. That's quite a bargain for the upgrade! ha ha ha
Yeah, their sale prices on bundles have always had weirdness....

Players are to MIDI what synthesizers are to waveforms.

Good one! Also the tags of the Synthetic Rig are a rather accurate description of my last session with the wifey. :lol:

Imagine a world where Rack Extensions were properly priced in the first place and never went on sale... *sigh

I don't agree at all. I don't have any problems with developers asking the prices they do. Nobody is forcing you to buy anything or to use Reason. Reason is a much smaller market than the VST market, and I am very grateful for all the developers we do have. I want them to be paid for their efforts. It's my understanding that no developer is "getting rich" off their RE sales (hopefully Props are getting rich, though!). Don't forget, many REs which have been ported over to Reason are a better deal in their RE version... for some strange reason. And I, for one, am very grateful for the sales we do get. :)

I'm speaking as a guy who has spent over $2000 on REs. And am likely to be buying some more during this sale.

Properly priced? Such as the A-List Guitarists costing the same price as their Virtual Guitarist counterparts? Because they do... $99 regular price. I imagine if UJAM releases the drummers outside of Reason, they will also be the same price...

By properly I just meant lower. With the current sale situation I usually wait for the sales to make a purchase. If sales didn't exist I might be buying certain RE's much sooner.

This happened to me, they repaid the outstanding funds to my account immediately

This has now been fixed, and we're close to fixing the wrong price on the Rigs upgrades! Thanks for your patience!

Here's to hoping the rig upgrade is discounted as well.

The Rigs seem to be fixed now, but still the old price. I think i get the few missing RE individually, that will be cheaper for me :-)
