best price for VS X5? - Different versions?

Post by garjobo »

Just looking on Amazon there...Videostudio X5 - £41. Just want to know from users..is this the full version, i mean ,is there another better version out there..just £41 seems too cheap.

I know in PC..for X5 and some VS Paint programme the cost is £110...No surprise they are more expensive...anyway, if you can let me know whether its worth me getting the one adverised on Amazon please?

thanks

Hi

I am a little cautious in purchasing software over the internet, so have always purchased from Corel.

The price does look good, but there are two versions the Pro and Ultimate the £41 is for the Pro the cheaper one.

The ultimate comes bundled with extra software, I think worth the extra price.

Check out the US Corel site for the download version, may be a reasonable price, always seems cheaper from the US than UK, you have to purchase the download version.

I noticed from one of your posts you referred to Photo Impact, as far as I know discontinued but available for purchase, PI X3 again from the US at $29, you will have to pay vat @20%, although the wife found a discount code that reduced the price even further.

Again remember to add that Vat at 20%

But just to make it clear, the VS X5 which comes in both the Pro and Ultimate packages are otherwise identical, It is only the extra software which makes the difference in the Ultimate package.
