We do allow resellers, and Sweetwater is currently carrying it.

Thank you for the hint but how can it be cheaper? The Jampoints i used were 30€ so i got it for 83€ incl. VAT from IKM. I can't see how $99.99 is cheaper as Sweetwater don't have any discount codes.

But Not every1 has 30 Euros jampoints?

Very simple solution to this problem folks.

If the price that you personally need to pay to get Syntronik is too high for you...

DON'T BUY IT!

Sheesh. What a bunch of whiners.

I didn't say it would be cheaper, 99.99 is a very low price and the opportunity to take another 30% off with JamPoints is an incredible deal that quite frankly I'm surprised we're offering. As with any company we have MAP (Minimum Advertised Pricing) that is an agreement between the company an its dealers. There are retailers that find workarounds to this MAP and basically sacrifice their profit margin in order to find ways to offer additional discounts below MAP (without advertising it directly per the "A" in MAP) but that's their thing not ours. We price our products and in this case at a deep discount for preorder and most dealers will sell at that MAP (like Sweetwater).

I mentioned Sweetwater only because that's a dealer I knew offhand who is offering it when I replied. I enjoy that I can be very helpful to you all, but if you are looking to find a "stacked bargain" or whichever plugin discounter is offering the best deal, well, I'm going to have to let you do the heavy lifting there.

I can't tell if they offer any further discount but I do know that this dealer does carry Syntronik - https://www.bestservice.de/syntronik_crossgrade.html

Not very helpful as it is 119€ at Best Service. Caine123 to answer your question: You can buy it for $99 (= 92€) at JRR since it's a Download License via Email Delivery.

Like I said, if you're looking for a discount below MAP you'll have to do the heavy lifting... If I were to open a "personal shopper" service for discount audio software it would probably be considered a conflict

I wasn't claiming it was at a discount anyway, but that is a German dealer which I do feel was at least part of the question (and I thought it was 99.99 + VAT which seems to answer the whole question).

Edit - you also seem to have missed this part of the reply:

I can't tell if they offer any further discount

...and US dealers would need to charge the appropriate VAT for your location even for digital delivery by law.

JRR never charge VAT regardless where the customer lives (at least i know that 100% for Germany).

Hi Peter, I Don't have time to reread the whole thread so I'll just ask: How will sampletank read the new effects? will the new effects be added to sampletank in an update, or something like that? I've already made my purchase

Will it 'drop' July 1st on the nose? -thanks
