Hey everyone, message from Zenhiser in my email. You will need to back up you product asap.

We are migrating our store in 7 days! Please make sure you have backed up your old orders as they will not be available on the new system.

Migration day: Friday 1st May 12:00am (AEST)

Only just found this out so thought I would share this here.

I'm currently test-driving Plugin Alliance's Triad. Very cool plugin and I'm thinking of using the $49 coupon to get it.

However, also wondering if you can apply the coupon to the BYOME/TRIAD bundle which is the same price as TRIAD by itself. Looks like you probably don't really need BYOME if you get TRIAD, but all things being equal, it'd be nice if it was thrown in.

Anyone know for sure?

Cheers

Not working.

Anyway, it takes a second to put it in the basket and see for yourself.

As an FYI, if you buy Byome, you get a link to buy Triad for $49. At least it is an option in my account.

Does anyone know why JRRShop doesn't have any points system? I'm making a pretty big order and was shopping around and found that a competing seller offers them on products that are the same price as JRR and it's honestly tempting me to buy there instead because I'll get 11US dollars in points for my next inevitable plugin purchase.
Does anyone have any thoughts? I might stick with JRR for now but I'm not sure

JRR’s coupons usually (but not always) beat the point systems of the other retailers.

When you add everything to your cart and go to checkout, JRR should automatically apply 'Group' discount, which will show you the true price.

There are instances where JRR cant discount that product, in which case you may want to go with another seller that offers cashback on any sales of their products. Just depends.

lI don't shop around with resellers any more, I just use JRR as they've served me well.

[timbit2006]

No I know that and it's always smart to try out the FORUM code just in case. In this case with the discount the price is the same and I get 11 dollars worth of points on my purchase. I'm not keen on mentioning the competing retailer because I don't want to take business away from JRRshop but it's seriously making me wonder what the actual reason behind Retailer A not being able to offer points and Retailer B being able to offer points is.

[revvy]

If we hold them all publicly to account, to the exact price to the dollar and cent, the rush to the bottom will wipe them all out.

In my opinion, natch.

(And generally, GROUP > FORUM)

JRR is always my first go-to as well. In my experience, Uncle E never disappoints.

I will occasionally go with another retailer if there's an interesting deal going on. But JRR is consistent. I may stray, but I always come back.

I've used JRR for multiple purchases as well as it is usually the cheapest, but for Waves I usually find the lowest prices at Everyplugin!

[telecode]

I have used JRR. They are good and well priced. Never had any issues.

timespace also offer atractive prices sometimes

[mgw38]

Most retailers end up charging more or less the same. Sometimes you get a discount, sometimes points, sometime both. But it usually ends up with more or less the same value proposition. The only exception is when you can circumvent taxes in certain very specific situations. If you are in the US and are buying a product from the European developer at Best Service, for example, you will benefit from the price reduction resulting from the removal of VAT. In contrast to US sales tax, Europen VAT is factored into the advertised sales price. So, if you don't have to pay it, you pay less. Same goes for US buyers at Time&Space, but only when paid in GBP.

JRR is a very reliable seller indeed.

I always try JRR first - but I saw something similar with adaptiverb - jrr showing coupon codes not available so $99, audiodeluxe $99 but giving $10 "deluxe bucks", but dontcrack.com was $88 in their private deal zone.
