DonkiDonki Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I am considering selling my Wysiwyg Perform R25 Dongle, subscription valid until March 2010. Any Offers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandMA_the_2nd Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Sadly old dongles no longer have any value as it is way cheaper to lease a dongle annually for at least 8 years before it becomes wortwhile to buy... anyone buying your dongle will have to pay 15 months membership just to get it to now plus another year to keep it current... its a real shame that the pricing leads to this...

maxjones2000 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Does the software have to be the latest release then? Surely the one in question would still work, but would be running an older release/version..? Or have I got the wrong end of the stick...? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gareth Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 No, you don't have to keep up your annual subscriptions for the dongle to still work - but Cast Software will do their utmost to make you feel like a complete sh!tebag for not giving them a few hundred pounds every year.

callumb Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Money thieving swines! One reason why I will never invest in the software even though it's damn good! Stupidly expensive then ask for more! </rant> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandMA_the_2nd Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I dont mind the subscription at all as the product is getting better and better and the new fixtures have to be made and need to be paid for... what I object to is the leasing option, it is a kick in the nuts for loyal annual members for many years.

(In my case, R25). If you want to bring the membership upto date then you need to cover the period from the expiration to now.This is a lot of money for Perform, hence I am considering selling it, if it's worth it. To be honest, I don't have any idea what it is worth; so I am trying to see if there is any interest for a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonkiDonki Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 After checking out the competition, I just can't bear to move from Wyg just yet. Some of the others have some great features (live visualization on LIGHTCONVERSE is flippin impressive - though Wyg is nipping at it's heels with the latest updates. Unfortunately I'm not at all impressed with LC's paperwork side) So membership renewal time again; don't suppose anyone has one of those 3dconnexion controllers gathering dust they would like to get rid of? That looks like a nifty feature once you get the hang of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
