In a newsletter by German reseller 3D Cyberdream the following was mentioned:
(Quoted from here)WICHTIG: Autodesk ändert im Februar 2013 die Bedingungen und Preise für Upgrades aller Autodesk Produkte. Dann sind zwar Upgrades bis zu 6 Versionen zurück möglich, doch zu einem einheitlichen Preis. Dieser Upgrade-Preis beträgt 70% vom Anschaffungspreis einer entsprechenden Neulizenz.”
Rough translation:
On the 3d Cyberdream page they mention a special offer for people upgrading now, but it’s unclear if this is a world-wide offer, a German offer or just a local offer of this one reseller alone… If you want to find out, contact your own reseller!IMPORTANT: Autodesk will change the conditions and prices for upgrades of all Autodesk products in February 2013. From then on upgrades will be possible up to six previous versions, but at a uniform price. This upgrade price will amount to 70% of the purchase price of a similar new license.
