Corel Bundle on sale again - includes PSP 2020 Ultimate

Post by patara »

Humble Bundle have brought back the Corel Painter Bundle for 6 days.

https://www.humblebundle.com/software/p ... nce-encore?

Here is my previous post detailing the offer back in September.
Prices are the same.

Don't accept the Humble Monthly charge offer unless you want it as it is not part of the Corel Bundle. It's for subscribing to Humble Monthly, where they supply games every month. I only paid the $25 US for the Corel package, no monthly charge.

Looks like Humble Bundle has another offer up for PSP 2020 and many others including Corel Draw Painter, and Particleshop and scripts and paintbrushes for less than $50 . Offer lasts for 13 days. Considering that I have purchased PSP each year and multiple copies for much the same thing I have decided that I will not buy the latest version unless it is below $50 especially since many of the newer addons are things I will never use eg Essentials, Photography, Manage.

As the latest PSP wasn't included in the bundle I thought there was no point mentioning this time.
For the two previous years they have always included the latest PSP in the bundle but sadly this year they only included PSP 2020 again.
I think a mistake on their behalf as the sales are nothing like last year when they included the latest PSP 2020 Ultimate. Sale has been going 9 days and they have only reached approx day 3 of last year's bundles sold.
Like you, I expect a realistic upgrade price before I will purchase PSP 2021.

Otherwise this is an excellent priced bundle and a great way to upgrade Corel software. I saw today they have added in another 10 brush packs to Painter.

Yes it is only the standard PSP version as well. And the Corel Draw is a 6 month subscription.
But still thought for people back on earlier X versions it may offer a cheaper way to obtain a higher version.
As well looking at the date of your post last year (end November) they are about a month and a half earlier this year (start October) so perhaps Corel did not come to the party this time as they still hope to get punters in at $80-$100.

Actually the bundle went on sale last year on 26th September and that is when I first posted the deal here. At that stage PSP 2020 had only be on sale for approx. 7 weeks.

The bundle sale period was extended by another week in mid October.
Then they brought the bundle back late November for another week.

In 2018 the Corel Bundle was at the end of December and included the standard version of PSP 2019.

Good pointer re your mention of the 6 months subscription to Draw. I had been considering getting the Bundle to upgrade my Draw but wouldn't do it for only 6 months of use.

Yes, I was going to buy the Bundle for a more recent DRAW, as I have DRAW 17. But then I saw that it was only a subscription, so dropped that idea...
