Thanks - I had found that last time I looked a while ago but as I said, only one of the UK re-sellers bothered to reply. Obviously not a lot of profit in it for them.

The Paris company don't seem to be much help.

I have just found it on Thomann for 259€ - but I had to e mail them to check that it is a proper perpetual licence - the wording on the site is as ambiguous as only Avid can be.

I really don't get the "authorised" resellers bit from Avid - after all they have to acknowledge and verify the code, so anyone buying from an un-authorised seller is, well, authorised by Avid....
