Heads up - 50% off Native Instruments until Nov 29th!
Thought a lot of people might be interested in this: http://www.native-instruments.com/en/specials/five-day-sale/ With apologies to the mods, but I thought some people might miss this if I posted it on one of the 'lesser' forums.

It will probably be moved.
It's seems more and more desperate these discounts, in my opinion. Not a sign of strength.
Once a year, with a 20-30% discount seems like every business could run without a sign of weakness.
But 50% many times a year?
Not good...
I upgraded Kontakt this summer and thought it was a temporary summersale.

Broken link. Also nothing in their recent mailouts. What products does it cover? Edit: Found it on their front page

The links not broken, it's their servers! Seems like their servers need a reboot as they've ground to a halt! Try again in 30 mins it says now.

Shame Komplete isn't covered by the offer.

and when you can pick up Kontakt at DV for £129 [snd update to Komplete for £249] it doesn't seem like such a great offer to me.....

Komplete (including update) are currently 25% off at Audiomidi.com. Free shipping too. Might be jumping on this even though I have much of what's in the box already - the price is still pretty good I reckon.

(I had a €25 coupon from a previous install and got Deep Reconstructions for under €10... I figure that's a decent deal!)
Audiomidi has a couple of updated No Brainer deals on offer too - always worth a look!

Komplete is 33% ' $374.25 off but at $72.52 shipping and customs and VAT to pay I'm better off going to DV and buying Kontakt and upgrading to Komplete, I think. 374.25+72.52 = 446.77 + (374.25*17.5%) = 512.26 + (374.25*5% ?what is the duty rate on imported software?) = $530.97 / 1.6 =£331.85....hmmm no it is cheaper than the £429 for full price or the £129Kontakt + £249upgrade = £378 but is it enough cheaper to warrant the hassle of releasing it from customs and the other malarkey.... HMMMMM decisions decisions

I hope so MrMook. But for $60 I don't think I can go to far wrong.
Downloading SS now.
I ordered the DVDs on the other two.

Well, I tried more than 20 times during the last two days to place an order on nativeinstruments.com, but I either got Server downtime message or the page did not even load itself up.
The sale ad should have said: "50% off from All products until November 29th, but do not even bother going to our web, our servers are not going to handle this sale period."
Wait, the index page just showed up!!....

I have a feeling NI is about to release something big in December. They always seem to do something like this right before a big release of a product.

If that's the case I hope I can logon to download it. Due to overwhelming interest in this sale, our web servers are experiencing severe overload. If you are unable to access the NI Online Shop, please try back in another 24 hours. We are working to resolve the situation and apologize for the inconvenience.

Could be. Doubt it would be a new Komplete as 7 just came out. I hope it's not Kore 3 :( Just finally managed to order Kore 2 and Alicia's Keys in a fit of impulse buying that took 3 days!

Finally ordered, and standard shipping is free (at least to Australia). That might change your sums a bit. Free WW shipping rocks (as does electronic delivery). Cakewalk could learn a thing or two from NI.
