Deluxe Edition - Price

edited September 2010 in Tales of Monkey Island
Hi everybody,
thank you for that great offer getting all 5 episodes for only $4.95! I just ordered them.
Now I am thinking about getting the Deluxe Edition. On the Talk-Like-A-Pirate-Page it costs $19.95. But if I click in the store... http://www.telltalegames.com/store/tomi-chest ...it says $14.95, maybe because I already bought the five episodes?

Unfortunately the latter does not work :-(
Can I get the Deluxe Edition for $14.95, or do I have to pay $19.95?
I wouldn't mind so much, about THIS price, but the shipping costs to where I live are a minimum of about +$14, so I almost have to pay the double price...

Thank you!

    You should try contacting Support. I'd definitely suggest waiting to buy your DVD rather than buying the regular edition, because there is no reason you shouldn't be able to buy the Deluxe Edition for $15. It was probably just not correctly integrated into the store.

    Having the same trouble. I've bought ToMI for $4.95 but when I try to add Deluxe Treasure Chest for $14.95 nothing happens. If I sign out and add the same product for $19.95 it works as it is supposed to. I've sent an e-mail to support asking about this so I assume we will be eligible for the $14.95 version as soon as they have the problem fixed.

    The Talk Like a Pirate Day program just runs through the weekend.

    Best thing to do if you've been a season customer and want the $14.95 Deluxe upgrade is to make your purchase after the Talk Like a Pirate Day activities conclude. We're planning to continue selling the Deluxe edition after Talk Like a Pirate Day ends.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi Joel, thanks for the answer.
    That means, the price of $14.95 will still be valid after the Talk Like A Pirate Day program?

    I'm sorry if I'm a bit slow but I don't get what you're saying, what do you mean by "season customer".
    There seem to be some kind of confusion about the prices, at least from my side.

    The Deluxe Edition costs $49.95 if you buy it clean without owning ToMI since before (but it costs $19.95 during this weekend).

    If you already own ToMI then you can buy the Deluxe Edition for $19.95 ($14.95 during this weekend)

    Is this correct?

    Exactly, this is my only concern. As long as we will still be valid for the discount after the discount has officially ended, then I'm fine with ordering it later.

    We're planning to continue selling the Deluxe Edition after this weekend.

    Independent of Talk Like a Pirate Day:

    * The Deluxe price for customers who previously purchased the season should be $14.95

    * The Deluxe price for brand new customers should be $49.95

    Hope that helps to clarify.

    One other thing ... customers who had purchased the season in the past can click on this link for Deluxe http://www.telltalegames.com/store/tomi-chest ... see if this works better. Again, if not, put purchase in after TLAPD concludes.

    Thanks,

    - Joel

    Arrr, that clears it all up!

    So just to re-confirm once more, Joel, if I buy TOMI right now, I can get the Deluxe Edition at $14.95 even one month after the sale is over?

    Not quite.
    Only if you buy it in two days (after the Play like a Pirate sale is over).

    ^Hmm I see. Thanks :)

    And when I say only in two days, I should have added only if you already bought the season (the downloads) from Telltale.
    Otherwise, full price ($49.95) it will be (but I guess you knew that)!

    If you buy the deluxe chest now, when you already own the full season, you'll still get it for 14.95 in your cart when you check out, even if the store page is saying 19.95. I had to put the sale price in on the store page, so it's not doing it's normal check against your account to see if you own it and displaying the discounted price. But once you add it to your cart, you should be all good and get the right price. I won the full season and just tried it for myself - looks like it works! Sorry for the confusion.

    So I guess it was smart of me to buy the entire season for $4.95, and only pay the additional $14.95 for the upgrade to Deluxe, saving myself $30 in the process.

    I tried buying the chest, but it's showing up as 50 bucks in the cart.

    I think the talk like a pirate day sale finished earlier on in the week.

    If you bought it during the Play Like A Pirate sale, you would have paid 20. Not bad at all considering those who bought it first had to pay $15. But hey, you missed that apparently.
