joey45 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Well frankly I feel more than a bit jipped by the Huey being $19.99 when I paid full price for the Pre-Order. Won't be making that mistake again with any modules from now on! Fixed it for you. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Rusty_M Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I don't see it as a mistake, or any problem. I bought something I wanted for a price I was willing to pay. Prices drop. It happens. Sometimes they drop quickly and sometimes it takes ages. It's not as if something I already have has been taken away from me. 1 The world is going mad. Me? I'm doing fine! http://www.twitch.tv/rusty_the_robot https://www.youtube.com/user/RustyRobotGaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brisse Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I see it this way: I bought it for full price to support the devs so that DCS can evolve into everything that we wish for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uksub Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Brisse I have supported the company since it started out and bought Lock on, FC, A-10 Beta, Black Shark 1 + 2 so I think I stand in a pretty good place in terms of how much money I have thrown their way over the years. Six months down the line, I could staomch, but 1 sodding month is a kick in the nads from where I stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk_5 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 (edited) Being unhappy with a sale price after paying considerably more not so long ago is getting old real quick. It happens in all markets with every kind of product you can imagine. The sale price difference in the instance of the DCS range's regular pricing is pitifully small in the big scheme of things. Imagine you just bought a house and the housing market collapses the next day, you invest heavily in the stock market only to see you share prices plummet, you buy a really expensive toaster and it goes on special a week later. It happens every day all over the world and is part of life. Deal with it. If it's really bugging you that bad, get a life!!

outlawal2 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Well frankly I feel more than a bit jipped by the Huey being $19.99 when I paid full price for the frickin Beta. Won't be making that mistake again with any modules from now on! And as has been stated AD NAUSEUM.. You paid regular price (Not a higher price) for the opportunity to use the pre-release version and enjoy it LONG BEFORE the completed version will be released. (And you will get full use of the final version as well) Also, you make it sound like you only get to use the beta / pre-release until the final product is released and then have to repurchase it. (And this is of course BS) You guys friggin kill me... Sooo, based on what you said, you are ticked off that you were able to purchase the thing months ahead of time and get to fly it as it is being tweaked... :cry: Some more of that great ENTITLEMENT mentality... As far as the $19.99 vs $39.99 goes, if it hurts that bad then NEXT TIME WAIT FOR THE SALE. I for one pay full price on all of the modules to support these guys and the great work they do.

Brisse Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Six months down the line, I could staomch, but 1 sodding month is a kick in the nads from where I stand. Yes, I can understand if people feel that way, and you are certainly not the only one. Me, I had a feeling there would be a summer sale when I bought it. It's not the first time ED has a sale. Next time, maybe I will wait but there is a few modules that excites me enough for me to buy them as soon as they are released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetlinerX Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 As far as the $19.99 vs $39.99 goes, if it hurts that bad then NEXT TIME WAIT FOR THE SALE. I for one pay full price on all of the modules to support these guys and the great work they do. Well... unless some of us are able to see into the future, I heard about the sale well after I bought it. So am I supposed to wait after every module hoping maybe there will be a sale? I mean... comeon. Personally, I dont feel much pain from paying the higher price, but saying that we should be able to tell the future and wait for the sale is a bit of a stretch.

lesnyborsuk Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I for one pay full price on all of the modules to support these guys and the great work they do. I am doing the same - I don't mind paying more since the quality of product I get back is just incredible. I wouldn't mind if they would take my money and burn it or do whatever they would like - they deserve it ! I remember when sex was safe and flying was dangerous.

Do you need to be able to look into the future to see there is a winter coming, followed by another summer? If you want to save the money, patience is your only guide. There's no magic to that. And if you really need to do this by the book, use the search-function and look up previous sales. Season-sales are probably season-sales, because the repeat themselves with the seasons. No crystal-ball needed here either.
