timmy Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I am looking to purchase the 32 channel starter package and was wanting advice if it is worth waiting on the sale or if I would even save? I ask this because I think the individual components are all that is on sale. I don't know if I will even save anything purchasing these separately or if I should go ahead and purchase the starter package. Thanks in advance.Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Batzdorf Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 The sale prices are always worth the wait. You can start you sequencing by downloading the trial version and upgrade it when you get you order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timmy Posted June 1, 2010 Author Share Posted June 1, 2010 I just didn't know if the software and all the stuff that comes in starter package were on sale too. Thanks for the quick replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Software has not usually been on sale.I can't recall if starter kits were on sale, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwaldrep Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 The starter kits were on sale last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmy Posted June 1, 2010 Author Share Posted June 1, 2010 Thank you guys! I guess I'll wait another month or so and hope starter kits are on sale again. Do either of you know a good place for tutorial vids for S2 sequencing? LOR website still says under construction. Thanks for all the help!!!!

timmy Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 Don't quote me but I think the sale last year was in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightORamaDan Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 No exact date yet but it will start in the last week of June or first week of July.dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErnieHorning Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Just a suggestion to anybody at LOR.Maybe a link could be setup such as http://lightorama.com/sales that people could check or be directed to do so, that would indicate whether any sales information has been released. It could then either provide a link or automatically redirect the user to an actual sale page.This could be used for both the not so secret, secret sale and the sumer sale. "Hey, did you check LOR's sales link first?"I know the sales spawn a lot of discussion and speculation, sometimes over multiple threads, on several websites. Then again, what would we talk about this time of year.Edit: A link could also be added to sign up for the email list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vipzach Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 There is already a link for Sales, it just needs updated. It also has a link to get added to the Sales email notifications. http://www.lightorama.com/w_sale_info.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddmoon Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 After I asked the question I then noticed to sales page from last year. It looks like the sale lasted 15 days last year so I would suspect it would be the same or similar this year.It is that time of year when I get to cash out surplus unused vacation time at work and I am hoping that I can get my hands of the money while the sale is on and then I do not have to go through the spousal unit for approval of funds.Ah, the things we do for lights.

I just know that twice a year, several people ask when the sale is. And they seem to feel it requires a new thread specifically for them without looking to see that it’s already been asked six times by others.It would seem easier to point to that location first, sort of like teaching a man to fish.

LightORamaDan Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Once we know everything about the sale we setup a sale page and put a link on the home page.This year the sale will start July 1 and run until July 14. Wewill have more information in about a week.Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
