WTB: PT 9/10 regular license

[studio-gak]

I need a PT 9/10 regular license, not HD.
Been running LE and need to get to at least 9 on a MacPro running 10.6.8
Must do license transfer of ownership through Avid ($35)

have you checked fleabay already?

Hi Jfreak,
yes I did check ebay already. A lot of bundled stuff I don't included in the sales for ones I did see. Just looking for the License, was already on LE and upgraded to loose the Digi002 and need to get to 9/10. I'm on a old cheese-grater MacPro.

The thing with 2nd hand licenses is hard now, because in order to do the transfer of ownership you need to have active support plan. Therefore any PT9 license deal you see is going to be ilok key only, not TOO, with best luck you get the seller's iLok and Avid accounts that would make you the legal owner. I would not expect to see any crazy deals out there. Good news is if you buy new current license it comes with 10/11/12 as well. Also, all legitimate license transfers are PT10 not PT9 because of the requirement of active support plan.

EDIT: even if you buy ilok key that has PT9 license and seller gives you the accounts, you need to find a dealer that has old stock of reinstatements to get it up to date. That would be about 35% of the new license price. So think hard how much you are expecting to save here...
