Whee!
I also got a whopping discount ($39.95 instead of $89.95) by stating my promotion code when they asked me - it was sent to me in the advertising email I got. Looking forward to getting teased about the t-shirt by my fellow musicians! 8-)
I think it is a mistake and that they rectified it promptly. As I was
getting my shopping cart ready it also said that I would pay 39.95 but later
on I was told that I was not eligible to the « Mac upgrade discount », so
they charged me the expected 89.95. I've talked to a sales rep on the phone
and he simply could not acknowledge that there were any offer less than the
89.95.
Yes, you are right. I couldn't get it to translate to my shopping basket either. THe way they explained it is that FinMac2002 owners get the promo code to have the same upgrade price as 2003 owners for a short time (to make up for not having OS X compatibility), and if I entered the promo code manually as well, then it was essentially applied twice, which is not accepted.
I find it a bit unfair that having bought 2003 and suffered in OS 9 as a result doesn't get me a better discount than all those 2002 users who DIDN'T pay for 2003. But, hey, it's not my company.
Nice story to cover up a computer glitch (which may be partly true), but it doesn't explain why this happened to me as I was purchasing my WINDOWS upgrade.
