I am interested in getting the bundle of x2 video pro and x2 paint. I am eligible for the upgrade price for the video. Does anyone know if they will discount the package deal for upgrading also? I have sent an email, but thought I would check here as well.
thanks

I'm not sure exactly what you mean...the upgrade price is always the lesser of first entry buying

As far as I am aware, the Paint utility is part of the X2 standard and Pro packages, so you would get it as part of the package, regardless of whether you buy the boxed full edition or the upgrade version.

Sorry, my first post was not clear. I'm interested in bundling the Paint Shop Pro Photo X2 Ultimate and VideoStudio Pro X2 together. They offer it at
http://store.corel.com/webapp/wcs/store ... &langId=-1
I was just curious if they would further discount the bundle because I don't need to buy the full VS due to owning VS10 and could get the upgrade version.
So looking to bundle the VS x2 pro with Paint Shop Pro Photo x2 ultimate.

There is no
upgrade version, just upgrade
prices. You still get the full version..

I guess I have to admit I am confused. I looked closely through the Corel store, and as best as I can see there is no ultimate bundle. Only a Photo & Video bundle there that comes close, but it looks like it is $149.95 for the full version, there is no upgrade price. I also did not see that product mention it includes the Steinberg Wavelab software.
So, let me ask, is there a package that "includes it all", has an upgrade price, and is available in the USA?

VS X2
Ultimate is not available for U.S. customers, just U.K, and other overseas countries. The Steinberg WaveLab (available only with the Ultimate version) is about the only difference in the Pro and Ultimate versions.
So we here in the U.S. only have the Standard or Pro versions to choose from. I would not be too concerned about not being able to purchase the Ultimate version. There are numerous audio editors available on the market. I use SonicFire Pro and Audacity. In fact have you pulled up the comparison chart to see the minute differences in the Standard and Pro versions? Not much difference, the main difference is the number of video tracks available....

Although if you are into high definition, and especially AVCHD, then you need Pro.

You need to regularly check the Corel Website to see what deals they have on offer, plus it is wise to subscribe to their newsletter because you also get discount offers every now and then.
You get Four prices for a single item
A. By way of Electronic Software Download (E.S.D)
1. Full (you have never had a previous version)
2. Upgrade (You had a previous version as per the advertised list)
B. By way of the Postman
3. Full (you have never had a previous version)
4. Upgrade (You had a previous version as per the advertised list
Then you get Bundles.
Here, instead of purchasing a single item which could be Full or Upgrade you opt to buy 2 or more items bundled together, These bundles have their own pricing for "being a bundle" and these are full versions not upgrades.
