Upgrading/crossgrading to 11 from 8/LE

Edit: Pardon the post, I scrolled down in the forum and found an answer to my question. Mods may delete post at their own discretion.

[Not too long ago, there was an option to crossgrade from PT LE/8 to PT 11, getting a license for PT 10 included in the deal. Does this option still exist? I can't find it anywhere. All crossgrade/upgrade options now seem to require either PT 9, 10, PT Express or PT M-powered.

If my PT 8 license is truly uneligble for cross/upgrade, what are my options? Am I left in the dust having to pay full price license to PT 11 now, if I want to upgrade?]

There are still some available through dealers like musicians friend. But when they're gone, that's it. So jump on it now:

Ok, so I need to get hold of one of these activation cards. I've asked around, and I can't find any in my country of residence, and the US retail sites won't ship outside the US.

How exactly does the activation card work? Is there a code that I input on registration along with my mbox3 serial number to then get access to a download link for PT11?

Ok, another question then: I found a retailer that can sell me the crossgrade activation card. Does this still grant me a license to PT 10 like it has done in the past? This would be sweet since I have tons of RTAS plugins that I want to continue using.

If it is the crossgrade to 11, then it will include a license for 10 as well.

Sweet! Thanks for the swift reply nst7!

I bought and registered the crossgrade activation card from a retailer in my city, and now I have both PT10 and PT11 licenses on my iLok, yay! :)

The seller said something interesting, though I think he might be misinformed. He said that since I bought a PT11 license this close to the release of PT12, because of the grace period, I would get a PT12 license for free when it ships. Is there any truth to this? I'm not holding my breath..
