Pro Tools to Pro Tools HD Upgrade Price on Avid's Webstore
The "Pro Tools to Pro Tools HD upgrade" is $2499.00. That's PTHD's full price! So you own Pro Tools, sometimes you've actually owned it for decades, and your only option if you want to upgrade to HD is to pay $2499 (3200 in Canada).

Re: Pro Tools to Pro Tools HD Upgrade Price on Avid's Webstore
Do you have a source for that pricing? The Pro Tools to Pro Tools HD Upgrade is $1899US on our webstore. (That discount is the price of a Pro Tools 12 Perpetual License.)

Re: Pro Tools to Pro Tools HD Upgrade Price on Avid's Webstore
The page below is quite unclear:
https://shop.avid.com/ccrz__ProductD...er=&store=shop It says $2499 but at the same time says "save on a perpetual license when you move from Pro Tools 11 or higher". Also the info button does say "Exchange your Pro Tools 11 or 12 perpetual license for a Pro Tools | HD 12 perpetual license for just the software price difference.", yet the page insists that "you will be billed $2499.00 now". It's quite confusing. [edit] I checked your link as well, and on my side it also says $2499.00. Could it be something with the webstore page? Frankly I'm starting to get really confused myself It's not a US/Can thing either since I see the full price at $2499, which is the US price (In Canada it's $3199), so I'm supposed to look at the US webstore.

HD perpetual license is supposed to be $3199 CAN, so I am indeed looking at the US webstore. ...after logging in I do see the full price in canadian dollars: However, in both cases (logged in or not) I see $2499 for the upgrade. I can assume that somehow the upgrade always shows up in canadian dollars but that's very confusing.

Maybe it's a site localization glitch. Jeffro will likely report it to the appropriate people.

Re: Pro Tools to Pro Tools HD Upgrade Price on Avid's Webstore
So the issue seems to be in the location detection for the pages. When you are signed in it shows the correct amount in CAD but some pages show USD when not signed in. Still looking into this, but wanted to at least let you know that the amounts would be correct in the purchase process (after signing in) and that there is indeed a discount when upgrading from PT.
You might try looking up the pricing from a reseller as well to confirm this... Just as an example, what do you see for https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/PTHDSoft-e vs https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/PTHDupPT-e?
