Lowest prices seen for GigaStudio 3?

[andyt]

Whilst I'm still hanging in for upgrade prices, I thought it might be useful to share info on the lowest prices for GigaStudio 3 we've seen so far.

In the states I've found ...

Orchestra: $399 from youreq.com (http://www.youreq.com/musiceq/software/gigastudio/gigastudio-3-o.asp) (free shipping in US)
Ensemble: $258
Solo:$144



In Europe (as I've posted elsewhere):

Orchestra: 285 pounds from Thomann (http://www.youreq.com/musiceq/software/gigastudio/gigastudio-3-o.asp) (including UK taxes)
Ensemble: 169 pounds
Solo: 94.56 pounds



Please post if you've found lower prices.

Turnkey (UK) haven't seen GS3 today. And are still unaware of what upgrade pricing will be, or if they will be involved. :(


But they will match and beat Thomann's pricing for Orchestral.

Turnkey - £279 + £9 next day delivery (they dropped from £449)
Thoman - £285 + £25 for 5 day delivery


I am not sure we will see a similar price war for upgrade pricing. Something tells that will be more regulated / standardised across Europe.
