u-he.com is still the fastest place to get their plugins. This might change in the future once our site communicates directly with theirs.

Anyway, there are many people who prefer to buy directly from the company. JRR's goal is to expand u-he's business, not hurt it. I'm a u-he fan first and foremost.
I certainly never thought you were trying to hurt them and I am sure this move will be widely welcomed. I am still pretty surprised by it though and have opened a topic on their forum about it.

I'm both a U-He and a JRRshop fan

Usually buying direct often costs more. Having 3rd party distributors increase sales and discounts are given only by permission.

Hmmm, didn't get that one. Wonder if there's some email pref I have or don't have controls that. Or maybe the world is random. Like it appears to be anyway...

And bought

Been waiting for a good deal on some fabfilter. Anyone know how long it takes for them to actually setup your account? I got my order invoice and already authorized volcano but no account info. Tried doing the reset password too with no email, nothing in spam either

I don't remember. It's been a year and a half, and I initially had an EDU eligible account.

Those who already own FF stuff will get an even better deal.

I just picked up Twin 2, and in my profile at FF now I get Volcano 2 offered at 55% off = €49,05

80% off if I buy the whole FF bundle

Thats why Ive been waiting for a good deal on at least a single FF plugin. Was very tempted by the full creative bundle during the last sale but couldnt pull the trigger on that much. Hopefully now that I have one it will help with their future sales. Always been interested in volcano, timeless, and saturn

Found this Danish web store selling Softube at crazy prices: SSL XL 9000 for about $79: http://www.4sound.dk/search/softube
Is this a real store? Only ships to Denmark, but these are downloadable products so maybe just use a fake address?

4Sound is a major retailer of hardware/software in Scandinavia, have lots of shops all over the place here.

I just visited two of their shops in Stockholm some weeks ago.

So no doubt they are 4real, but if they ship to other parts of the world is another issue.

The prices are crazy and make no sense the big TSAR-1 = 509kr and the little TSAR-1R = 1.129kr.. What???

There are also deals on Softtube in the Swedish 4sound webstore, and SEK is less worth than DKK: http://www.4sound.se/brands/softube

Converted the price of TSAR-1 there is about €69

Yeah, it's too good to not be a mistake: SSL XL 9k is almost at 70% discount. Maybe someone's lucky to take advantage of it... Anyone from Denmark want to help me order it?

At the price it seems a risk free investment, to transfer the license later one needs to buy a tranfer token at €10 and it doesn't become NFR.

So when the sale is over, I doubt it would be difficult getting the money back second hand if the plug wasn't to ones liking after all.

Indeed. This is why I'm kinda waiting to buy Pro-L at their next summer sale (though I am hunting for it second-hand.)

I own FIVE products from their line, so the first thing I get is discounted 29% and subsequent products, from most to least expensive, are 40% off, then 45%, 50%, etc up to 60% max off.
