Over here in Canada, Synth Bundle 1 was $69...and Bundle 2 was negative -$69.25

So I added both Bundles to cart and 25 cents was credited to my account.

How cool is that!

That was probably a big damage to Noise Engineering....
Props will pay them accordingly I bet/hope, so damage is on the Props side

Shame you can't put multiple copies of Bundle 2 in the basket. You could have "bought" everything in the shop for nothing!

Expanse looks to be the upcoming deal of the week.

What's up with recycling the reward RE's as the deal of the week? There's been some bundle deals here and there to break it up. Really makes the reward system even less exciting.
How did you know?!?

you know this could be a very cunning marketing ploy... keep us all watching the shop like a hawk, thus more chance of buying stuff, gets us through the doors so to speak. Its not like it hasn't happened before!

Plugin Alliance seem to base their business model off a series of pricing 'mistakes' so yeah I guess anything is possible. I hope not though.

show is over - €169.00
https://www.propellerheads.com/shop/pro ... -bundle-2/
isn't 169 also a weird price - considering it used to be 85 for the longest time.
I was once interested in Noise Engineering stuff but not anymore, I didn't even get the synth bundle 2 for the wrong price of 16,90 Euros so 169,- is just ridiculous. I hope they don't sell a single copy at that price.

85 was a sale price. It was at 169 right from the start.

If you missed the accident in the sale and if the device are not of interest for you, it is fine.

I always saw it at around 85,- Euros, but maybe it was a long sale? It was always something I found weird because it was always less than the price of synth bundle 1, which is around 119 Euros I think.

About the accident, I didn't miss it, I just passed even when I could have bought it. To be honest I was never interested in synth bundle 2 and always try not to get stuff I don't need no matter how cheap it is, because at the end it only will waste place on my computer and bother when searching through my REs.

I found synth bundle 1 interesting a while back but not anymore, if the accident would have happened to synth bundle 1 I might have bought it, but not at the regular price or even at the sale price from last week. This week's sale is a similar situation for me, I wanted to get expanse a while ago but now I have Serum and some more Synths and it seems like these sales all came too late for me, which is actually good news for my bank account :)

:puf_bigsmile: lol, wouldn't that be something...maybe I could have just got the "negative' bundle and used the $69.25 for a nice bottle of scotch or something...

BTW, folks, I was just kidding about getting both bundles and getting 25 cents credited to my account! :redface: Just one of those days...

But I wasn't kidding about the negative -$69.25. That's really what showed up over here.
I wonder what happens if you do buy a negative money product?

I couldn't find out as I still have Reason 8.3 and can't buy any of the REs that have came out in the last few years.

Come on Props! Make Reason 11 so awesome that I'll buy in and buy a bunch of REs as well.

Well, that's weird! It says "50% off", but it's still showing at £44.00 for the UK.

It's probably a repeat of the weird pricing bug from last week, (which means it might be free in Canada!)

I think you have to buy two and then throw one away.

I'm constantly banging on about PolySix, but I think it's a really neat synth and absolutely worth £23.

It's not particularly versatile, but you can dial in a sound ridiculously quickly from scratch and it pretty much always sounds great. Might not be for everyone (hey, that's why trials exist :) ), but I really like it and I still think it's kind of a shame that the rest of the old Korg soft-synths didn't make it to RE-land.

I’ve got MonoPoly. Are they radically different in the sounds they create? I am in no way a synth aficionado so don’t really get small nuances. Am I set?
