Couldn't hurt emailing them to see if they could help you out on the price you paid at least a little. It's been known to happen :)

That's too bad, but like Molly said, it wouldn't hurt to email them and see what they say, its worth a shot.I had put off buying all the ORBX stuff I got until they had the big Christmas sale this last holiday. Now that I got the majority of what I wanted, I most likely wont buy anymore stuff unless it's on sale. Actually, I have gotten to the point now with buying addons, that unless its just something that I have to have, like the PMDG NGX, or an FSDT/FT airport, I wont even buy until its on sale.

You said it! I wouldn't own a lot of addons like any of the Captainsim airplanes or even the ORBX Australia if it were not for their sales. I am the kind of person that if i want it really bad (like the NGX) then I simply can't justify the cost. I will with a lot of airports. There are a lot of airports like KSFO and the upcoming KLAX that I would consider robbing a bank in order to own. wink.gif I am surprised I could finish this post. While I was writing my two girls were screaming that insane screeching scream. It drives me insane. wacko.gif

Hi guys,Sorry to hear you missed the sale pricing. We still feel that our regular non-sale pricing represents some of the best value in the industry though, particularly given that each of the PNW products took a year or more to develop. With regards to pinging us for a refund, I regret to say that we don't offer price differential rebates before/after sales - the volume is too high for us to deal with all requests on a case by case basis. As some of your forum colleagues have mentioned, some folks wait for our sales (we traditionally have big mid-year and post-Xmas sales) plus random "specials", which will continue.


Cheers,

John Venema

Hi John. As I said. No problem. Lesson Learned. I'll always check your site from now on, instead of letting the excitemnt of your products, override my "common sense". I know I purcahsed 6 from you, so there might be a couple of more I could get at the sale. :( Thank Yiou for your wonderful products.Best,David

Might add Flightsim store is also giving additional 12% off using FLTSIMWED on anything in the store. Picked up KORS with another 12% off the $19.Carl
