I find it strange how when ever I decide to purchase something the price goes up somehow.

Like a week ago the sounds here

https://www.appgamekit.com/dlc/sound-library

Was a real good deal, but now i get the funds to pay for it the price doubled.

this is the forth time this happened to me.

I give up on buying products from the game creators as there never the same price, they go up and down all the time.

To bad, they would have had another sell today.

I'm creating this post more out of frustration then anything.

Mods, do what you will with it.

Unless some one wants to give me a discount code or something because I find this unfair.

Ouch thats expensive for what you get, I think I got it as part of a bundle discount or something.

Can also check out some online sites like ZapSplat - the ability to use a search engine is nice I'm bad for constantly browsing and never finding anything. Kenney assets are a great deal too IMO.

I like the DLC sound pack and it received a nice update recently, as well. TGC has constant sales (including the recent bundles, the likes of which i've never seen by TGC); it's their way. So, it will be back on sale soon.

@Game_Code, try Kenny assets, there should be more than you need in there and to be honest its all pretty much the same, a TGC ping-pong is no different to a Kenny ping-pong.. until you can afford it that is, because I agreed with VN it gets some nice updates (and Kenny all .ogg work in AppGameKit unless you recode them ... strange issue that one)

Also, tools rfxgen (made with/by raylib) so you can generate truly royalty free sounds that you own, you could even make and sell your own packs

The prices, well, across the board I see things getting ridiculously expensive (here in the UK anyway) so it would be natural progression, you have to catch those sales when they are there.

I know, I think I will like it to at the right fair price lol. It is just when I have the funds it is expensive, when I do not it is cheap.

Did the price actually go up?
Or did the discounted sale end?

What is the difference, I planed on buying it on payday, now I can not buy it. to me there is no difference because I wanted to buy it today for that price, and now I can not buy it at all.

But I was pointed to another place with other sounds.

I was wanting the sounds for the game comp.

well sales don't revolve around your pay day. And the whole give me discount because its unfair I have to pay full price sounds a bit childish to me. I paid $50 I think for AppGameKit and it was recently on sale for like $10 with a bunch of other stuff included. I could say, that's unfair, give me the difference back. But realistically, that's just the luck of the draw.

That is no way to run a business depending on your own sales limit and it is not childish to want to buy something for the planned price it was listed for.

I'm not demanding a discount but that would be nice.

I can easily buy my sounds or anything elsewhere .

But it is a burn in my side when every time I get paid every sale is off, and this is every time.

this is why they need to just keep all the prices the same so I can save and plan, but I also have bills to pay and mouths to feed and rent to pay and other stuff.

I wanted to buy this because it was a good sound pack and a good price I could finely afford.

But please do not tell me how to fell, thanks.

with that said, I am planning on buying something else where prices do not change. So the issue has already been dealt with.
