This bundle of ImpactSoundworks wind instruments is actually quite amazing. They never go that low, not even close.
The credits you’re talking about only bring non-sale prices down to a similar sale price, as I read. This means you can use them to get some of this stuff at their once sale prices even when the sale is gone. Works exactly like IKM’s JamPoints.

If you really read my comment (can't believe my English is that bad if you did, and didn't understood), my complain was mainly targeted to the fact, that you CAN'T buy the item to its non-sale price, in this case $ 99 per instrument, and use your "credits" for that purchase.Fleer wrote:This bundle of ImpactSoundworks wind instruments is actually quite amazing.

What comes then to the "jampoints", they are as useless as pope's balls.
I have had my pockets full of "jampoints" many yeard, but always buying directly from the vendor without the VAT or from the sale, is much better deal than using these magic points.
If and when these oraganizations will have "loyal customer programs", these should be more than just a cheap legerdemain.

If you buy the bundle then can't you resell the items you don't need individually?Harry_HH wrote:Overall quality is good, but I don't need overlapping winds in my collection.

You can't buy stuff that is currently on sale in the bundle price. Only stuff in the "shop" I have bought something from the shop, used my points to lower the price to the minimum and had no problems redeeming it. I think it was a Soundiron drum or something. It was only $19 with the points. Usually you are better off grabbing the bundle when it comes out, some of the amounts needed to get back to the bundle price are pretty crazy.Harry_HH wrote:If you really read my comment (can't believe my English is that bad if you did, and didn't understood), my complain was mainly targeted to the fact, that you CAN'T buy the item to its non-sale price, in this case $ 99 per instrument, and use your "credits" for that purchase.Fleer wrote:This bundle of ImpactSoundworks wind instruments is actually quite amazing.

And I keep looking at Sonuscore's Emotional Cello. Still the discount price is $69, and I really don't need another cello.

It not the Emotional Cello, which is one of the most beautiful sampled instrument in the world, but some more or less useless, ready-played-product,dzilizzi wrote:You can't buy stuff that is currently on sale in the bundle price.

Hm, strange, i see in Plugin Boutique Predator 2 Upgrade (from v1), note:
"This is an Upgrade to Predator 2 for Predator 1 users (eXplorer III users are not eligible for this upgrade)"
But what difference ? ExpIII as well contain Predator v1

Ironically, Pope John XXX didn’t make the list.
