Mr. Karavidas may have confused two issues. I have a standing offer of
$1750 for a Protel 98 license. As a standing offer, you can be sure that it
is not too high. A private user should be willing to pay more.
The seller in question is advertising his copy of Protel 98 on the list
[EMAIL PROTECTED] He was asking $2500 and found no
buyers, even though anyone who had decided to buy Protel 99SE could save,
right now, $2000, by buying the man's license and upgrading.
Because he knows that the $2000 savings will become $3500 in less than two
months, he'd prefer to hold on to the license unless someone is willing to
pay $500 more, i.e., $3000 for it. It's quite reasonable.
Protel licenses, new or old, hold considerable resale value. It's
practically unique among CAD systems that way.
(Note that Protel does not allow the independent sale of a license after it
has been used for upgrade, so we can't have our cake and eat it too. Darn.)
