Maybe my english isn't as good as you think it should be :wink:

If an offer is made to you then why aren't you "entitled" to it ?

What would be the right expression according to you ?
We have a problem in this country (USA) with people (usually younger and/or lower income) thinking the world revolves around them.

They think what are actually privileges are rights to them.. that is, they feel entitled.

I see people young and old on the road thinking they own it.. no sharing.. no state laws.. nope they own it. Because the world revolves around them.

So I had to laugh instead of cry when I saw someone claim they were entitled to a deal in one currency because the email they got mentioned it.. even though that is not their local currency.. or even secondary..


Just because you got an offer in USD doesn't mean you are entitled or even granted the ability to use it.


As example, I've gotten offers from women sharing (sometimes nude) photos of themselves when they accidentally got the email address incorrect.. it doesn't mean the offers were valid to me just because they accidentally sent them to me. They made a mistake.. well a couple of mistakes.. but the one here I'm pointing out is sending the entire request to someone other than their intended target. :-o

You want a better deal, I understand (believe me, if anyone on kvr does, I REALLY understand :lol:), but in this case it looks to be a mistake made by NI if they sent you an offer exclusively in USD and you don't live in the USA.
It's 2am here dont expect anything less ;)

or i fyou are in the UK

Offer = Handouts = Free money to those who are unable to work for it.
Entitled = Benefits = Those who don't want to work for it.
CHAV for short ;)

Post

The reason is because prostitutes will give you a way better deal for American dollars than they will for foo-foo commie euros. NI knows they will probably get all night + breakfast in bed for $99 vs. a 15 minute quickie for 99 euros. Makes sense to me. 8)

VitaminD : well I read what you wrote and I will say that you do have a point there. But ---
I'm just a 57 year old spoiled kid from Denmark ;-) and in this country you have the right to purchase an item for the price that is displayed or offered if the shop has put the wrong price tag on it.
Also I've bought my share of stuff on the web and I usually get to cjoose the currency I want to pay with.
What bugs me most though is that Arturia (in this case) doesn't bother to answer a politely asked question.

Maybe it's an honest mistake on the companys side but I think one should stand by what you do say or especially write in an offer.

That being said I think I'll rest my case and hold my guns and just go back to being the playful little music making boy that I am at heart
:)

Thank you VitaminD for taking the time to give me an elaborate answer to my question (although I don't quite agree :wink: )

I just saw the Zero-G sale mentioned on the bargains thread.

It also commented we get 3 titles free with an order over $20: Heaven 17, Freak Beats, and Ross's Rising Funk.

Unfortunately, I was unable to find out how to get those for free even after adding another product over $20 (Pure Rex) to the cart - they show up as $21/ea in my cart.

Anyone know how to get those as freebies?

Post

From the zero g email;


How to get your three FREE products:

Place any product(s) in your Download Shop cart that add up to more than $20.00 (so this could be PURE REX or any other title(s) you like). When you have finished shopping, go to the checkout. Enter the coupon code "3FREE" - this will add the three free products to your basket for you. Checkout and download all your products.

Post

Thank you - that coupon code is what I needed and it worked great!

Post

You are welcome, Sir!

The freebies, although a little old now, are actually quite good.

I don't get it, what do i need to own in order to upgrade to Alchemy?

Might be just a language barrier to me though :oops:
Anyone know? I can't see it either, just shows the free sound library but full price in my cart...

It says "existing customers" and it calls it an upgrade.

My guess is that it is for people who already own an Alchemy soundbank. I'm not sure if Taste of Alchemy would count.

musikmachine, do you already own an Alchemy soundbank?

Post

Maybe for the people who own Camaleon 5000? (Alchemy predecessor)
