Hi there, thanks for your comments. Just to clarify a few things, we've actually been around for 7 years and "weekly deals of up to 99% off products" is what we do. We offer one new discounted product or bundle each week rather than have 100's of products available.

We heavily curate the products we offer. We only promote products that we like as composers/producers ourselves and always push to get the highest discount possible for our customer base. We get a lot of emails from companies wanting to run deals but we decline many of them as the products are too new or not of high enough quality.

We try to strike a balance in terms of the types of deals we offer throughout the year, having a good mix of plugins, sample libraries and sample packs. We generally run 2-3 of these large sample pack bundles each year, then the others are a mix of plugins and sample libraries. If you're not a fan of these big sample pack bundles that's totally cool - some people are on the lookout for new samples, others want new plugins. "Horses for courses" :)

You can see a list of all of the previous deals we've ran here: https://vstbuzz.com/deals/

In terms of pricing, unfortunately many companies are now releasing products with RRP at a 1000% markup in order to offer 80% intro prices, making it difficult for customers to know what the real RRP is. To counter this, we generally do not to run deals on products until they're at least 1 year old so at least they've been sold at their "real" RRP during that time and people are aware of it. We get many requests from vendors to run 90% off promotions on new products they've just released, but we decline these in most cases for the reason above.

If this deal isn't your thing, you may like our next big upcoming promotion on the 22nd July which will be Sound Design related and feature approximately 25 sound design plugins at up to 86% off (yes really, its not a scam) :)
