Disclosure… I own a Logic Pro 16, purchased at 50% discount when list price was $995. I’m a happy customer!

From their page :
Standard Pricing Student Pricing Enthusiast Pricing Startup/Contractor Pricing
Logic 8 $479 $239 $239 $359
Logic Pro 8 $999 * * $849
Logic Pro 16 $1399 * * $1259
in my book, as a contractor, "steep discounts" are something else.
Apart that, in EU there is no sign of similar "steep discount", Logic 8 costs for everyone550-600 Euros, depending the seller.
To put it simple, there is now way in the world that i'll by this thing at this price.

Some days ago, after seeing a friend using an old Logic device with the Logic 2 i finally decided to proceed with the purchase except that i soon discovered that prices skyrocket to the sky, probably i lived under a rock but ... WT* happened in the mean time ?
My memories were about something around 150 USD for the simpler tool, now we start from 500 Euros with the cheapest one ... i fear i do not understand their business model.

I've seen other tools going up in price as well. Most likely it is due to component shortage and needing to buy parts at 10 times the price. About 2 years ago I paid around 200 euro for a Prologix ethernet GPIB interface. Right now they cost around 600 euro. I triple checked: it is the same model I bought!
At the current Salea prices levels it makes more sense to buy an oscilloscope with digital inputs (or upgrade your existing DSO if possible).

The”Enthusiast” discount is not shown for the Logic Pro 8 or Logic Pro 16. I stated I was an Enthusiast and asked by email and was offered 50% off. I think this percentage applies to all models?

Prologix ethernet GPIB interface is for sure something old and/or belonging to a niche, looking inside their product i do not feel that related BOM increased that much, but in the end it's not my business.
To finalize, i'll try to buy something legit used / old stock, but with little hope, otherwise my customers will see something from other brands.
