Adobe CS5 – price difference continues

2010 April 12

Juten Tach,

what was i thinking? Equal prices for Adobes Creative Suite, no matter, where you live? Nope. Since Adobe has unveiled CS5 and the pre-order forms, the price differences continue. Take the CS5 Web Premium package, for example.

price in USA: $ 1,799
price in Germany:  € 1,999 (without VAT) , that’s around $ 2,730 with the current rate.

That means, the german price is roughly 150% of the US price.

On a positive side node, i recognize, that Flash Builder is now part of the Creative Suite, at least in Web Premium, which is good.

    You only get the standard Flash Builder though in the premium suite.

    Not sure if there’s any easy way to upgrade that standard product to premium or whether you just have to shell out in full again.

    Not sure in euros, but at least in the US it costs $499 to upgrade to FlashBuilder Premium for people buying CS5 Web Premium
