DLTSLC Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Anyone know if they discount the S3 software along with their controllers, CCRs, etc. for the Spring or Summer sale ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmacw Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I could be wrong but I don't recall any of the sales discounting the software itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLTSLC Posted January 13, 2012 Author Share Posted January 13, 2012 I guess what's $140 when I'm buying 9 CCRs.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amcdonald307 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Historically the software has not been reduced at the sales. But, S3 is is a different ball of wax (can control other-than-LOR equipment), and the SuperStar is new. Don't know how much comparing it to the past you can do...If I was a betting man, I would say no. I think the sales are geared around inventory reduction, and bulk buying decisions. The software falls into neither. And let's face it, it is already cheaper than the options I've looked at (and price aside is better IMO).But, I think the starter package as a total is on sale, but more a reflection of the hardware price than software.

DLTSLC Posted January 13, 2012 Author Share Posted January 13, 2012 that's a good point, I didn't consider the starter package discount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wbottomley Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Software has never been on sale since I've been using LOR. A discount might be applied if a person purchases the starter kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLTSLC Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 It looks like it makes the most sense to get the 16 channel starter package, and add the Advanced S3 for $69. It comes out to be around $450, and you get a controller, the accessories, and the S3 Advanced software.I think that's about as good as buying them individually during last year's spring sale, where the 16-channel controller was around $270 or $280.

cparsons2391 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 If you don't mind me asking. Does anyone have an idea of when the spring or summer sale may happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 cparsons2391 wrote: If you don't mind me asking. Does anyone have an idea of when the spring or summer sale may happen?Normally? Spring sale anywhere from mid/late March to early/mid April. Summer Sale, has been as early as Memorial Day weekend, though usually in the late June or early July time frame.If you were to ask LOR right now, I'd guess the answer would be, "Don't know yet."

Limit quantities and great prices!Summer Sale: Super Sale with special incentives! In 2010, 43 people received their orders for FREE! This sale will be sometime during the summer.
