Given the lack of prorated discounts, the emergence of new, heavily-discounted bundles, and the constant sales and coupon codes, figuring out how and when to buy UA plug-ins is starting to feel like taking a trip to Vegas to play the slot machines. If a (relatively) small company can implement this pricing scheme, there is no reason UA cannot do the same-they just don’t want to do it (probably because they feel that their existing customers are a captive audience who aren’t going anywhere). This is a fair system that helps returning (loyal) customers instead of penalizing them, while still incentivizing folks to purchase the bundle up front.

If a user does not buy the “all in” bundle from the start, he or she can later complete the bundle at a discounted rate (that is roughly 10% more than what is charged for buying the “all in” bundle from the beginning). They have a system where there is a special discounted price for buying everything at once. I just purchased a bunch of plugins from Audio Modeling. This sort of dead-end pricing policy makes no sense, it is anti-existing customer, and no other company I am aware of does it this way. There is no other option and no economically sensible way for me to complete the bundle. To get the remaining four plug-ins, my only options right now would be to (1) purchase the remaining plug-ins a la carte (which would cost as much as or more than the Creative Edition bundle, depending on which plug-ins I was missing) (2) purchase three of the four remaining plug-ins by buying the “3 for $399” bundle (which would cost $50 more than the Creative Edition Bundle and still leave me missing a plug-in) or (3) purchase the Creative Edition Bundle for $350 (even though I already own 60% of the plug-ins included in the bundle). Here’s a hypothetical: Let’s say I owned 6 out of the 10 plugins included in the new Creative Edition bundle. This is a shame, as it makes UA’s pricing strategy (which is already confusing) altogether nonsensical.

Uad already have plugin in bundle
