...So there was an intermediate version then, from which you upgraded? My X2 Licensing History Dec 26, 2005 Xplorer2.........US$25.03 Oct 16, 2011 Xplorer2 lifetime assurance upgrade....US$42.4 The afore-mentioned Dec 26, 2005 invoice shows Nikos' office was located at: 5 Gregorious E' Street GR 54...

For Life Time Upgrade, most software develoeprs over the world honor their promise, with Nikos being the only notable exception.
For example, on Jul 15, 2006, I paid for the license of Total Recorder 6.0 Today I still recevie free upgrades from Higher Criteria, publisher of Total Recorder.

Hi expensivegreece, Page 2 of this thread: On Oct 16, 2011 I took a leap of faith in Nikos to pay US$42 for upgrading my Xplorer2 Life time (bought on Jan 3, 2006) to Xplorer2 Pro Life Time. Now Nikos expects me to pay another US$40 for upgrading my Xplorer2 Pro Life Time to Xplorer2 Ult. So within ...

b) ... So, let me repeat the argument first offered by armsys which goes: "We only took YOUR offer, it was YOUR error or something not to consider that this offer would make you lose your money thereafter.", and second, for logic:... Have Nikos ever allowed Pro Life Time paying users a fa...

Hi expensivegreece, The following is the original email reply from Nikos. Strictly from the horse's mouth: the cost for upgrading X2 Life Time to Ult Life Time is US$40. -----Original Message----- From: zabkat sales [mailto:finance@zabkat.com] Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2012 3:42 PM Subject: RE: Ult ...

Treating "speculation" as fact (just because it satisfies your fears) is not a particularly healthy approach to life, though it does make an already cynical world a worse place to live in, which seems to be what people want out of life anyway these days. When people come back with evidenc...

Nikos,
Even with 2 non-essential patches for X2 Pro, I appreciate your effort.
Thank you.

following this reasoning to its logical conclusion, if I say, open a restaurant in the future, you are entitled to free lunches on me, as obviously you own whatever I do from now on!? Slaves come cheap these days, a mere $30 and you have them for life :) This time Nikos tells the whole truth from t...

Kilmatead, Thanks for your input. You miss the core issue. When users paid for the Pro Life Time, they were never informed of the forthcoming Ult. And the same renaming tricks will be repeated if the past record is our guidance. In my case, I've already paid for the Life Time versions twice since 20...

On Oct 16, 2011 I took a leap of faith in Nikos to pay US$42 for upgrading my Xplorer2 Life time (bought on Jan 3, 2006) to Xplorer2 Pro Life Time. Now Nikos expects me to pay another US$40 for upgrading my Xplorer2 Pro Life Time to Xplorer2 Ult. So within 5 months, I've to pay US$82 for the functio...

The actual cost of upgrading Pro Life Time to Ult Life Time is US$40, not $20 which Nikos fooled us in the beginning of this thread. The following is the Mar 8 private email from Nikos: ---------------------------------------------------------- Anyway what I am trying to say is that the ultimate upg...

luma, Exactly you're describing the whole truth and fact. In my case, I was deceived twice already. As such, there's no reason why Nikos won't repeat the same renaming tricks again and again to punish his legitimate loyal paid users. For the same life-time upgrade cost from Xplorer2 Pro to Ult, you ...

Amongst others, the Pro version is significantly slower. You know why. The excessive licensing checking slows down the Pro version. You're punishing your genuinely licensed users. That's unfair.

The core issue here is: there's only tiny difference between Pro & Ult. Both Pro & Ult should never be two products for all honest and practical purposes. For 40 years in the software industry, Xplorer2 is the only product renaming itself into 2 functionally similar products. On Wed Apr 9, 2...

Nikos, Your newly undocumented enhanced offer is certainly more reasonable and worthy of consideration. Thanks. Update & Correction My previous post was wrong. Nikos misled me. It turns out that upgrading my Oct 2011-upgraded Pro Life-Time to Ult Lift-Time will cost me US$40. In my case, Nikos ...
