Hi there

I am trying very hard to buy the full version in box package, not download or email to me and have the box version mailed to me. I have already bought the old full version which i do not have the priviledge to upgrade. I would want to pay online via VISA and have the Box sent to me. I have already sent email to support at Pure Basic, German Support, and Freak but no one has answered me. It is so hard toget hold of one? Is there any test i have to go through before i can get my hand on one?

Please help.

I don't think you get a box. All I got is the full version and the DataKey to upgrade.
PS : I purchased PB a long time ago (PB 2.30 !), so it may have changed.

Better buy the version on the main purebasic.com website, as boxed versions are not freely updateable...

Thanks for your support !

As you allready have a boxed version, you should be able to use
that 39€ upgrade offer.

I don't know much about that, i didn't buy that, but the online version

Hi there

I just paid by Bluepaid from Pure Basic web site. All i get is an email telling me they are possessing my Credit Card. I did a lot of Credit Card Transaction before, and all of them is instant transaction. So hwere is my Full Version????

Please help

I think the ordering process is not fully automated.
Fred will send you a mail with the download information.
Give him some minutes (hours?)

Timo

I thought Fred is the main PB Developer here? Does he have time?

Fred: Are you there?

Cecil

I have it now, thanks a lot to everyone. I hate to possess anything demo and not registered. Now i feel safe...

Some online transactions can take up to 2 days to be processed, depending
on the vendor. All you have to do is be patient, as you found out.

Whats the story with this box set??
The FAQ says
"The very first PureBasic user (which has registered in 1998) still has free access to new updates and this is not going to change. "

There is a boxed PureBasic version 3.30 available in Germany, sold by Topos for 24,99 euro.
Not upgradable for free.

You can later choose to get for 39€ the right to use all new updates.
You then also have access to all updates and never need to pay again.

This is in my opinion a good tryout package, because in total, you only
pay 5€ more, and you also get a book with the boxed version.

In the "Game Programmers Editon" from Topos was no book. Perhaps it's in the "Professional Editon".

Right, the "Game Programmers Edition" includes manual on cdrom as pdf file. The "Professional Edition" also includes a (partly) printed manual, especially the chapters with the command descriptions. Some other goodies too, like a organizing program (completely with source). Thats why it cost a bit more. For both the upgrade fee is 39 €.
