Bummer…

Oh cr@p. I saw Ben's announcement of the 200$ discount but I had other priorities for a few days. Tried to order the Play+ upgrade just now, and ran into the limit too. Having been a fan & supporter of Benn for a long time, I have to say I was a bit disappointed ;-/. I hope some of us Benn Patreons get another chance...

A rollercoaster of emotion right there. Now turn that into a song :)

If I weren't deeply and passionately in love with the Embodme Erae Touch I'd have bought this

I saw the video earlier but I didn't realize there was such a great deal with this. No worries, it's still a cool upgrade and I'm happy to support this. That said, $300 for the upgrade would have lined up a bit better as the average used price on Reverb for November 2023 was $549, increasing to $600 if you go back to September 2023, and $688 back in November 2022. Now the old model will be worth about $400-450.

UPDATE: Polyend reached out quickly and will make it right: "Yes, we missed the part about accessories and SD in the first communication. Don't worry about it. No need to send one more package to us. We'll ship you the complete package."

They must have, because this "please include old accessories." is not in my email either, *and* I called Polyend US early this morning -- the employee on the phone wasn't quite sure what to do/answer, but finally said, "just send the unit". This sucks because the old SD card is indeed super slow, it's great news that they fixed that, but I was told to keep the card.

Interesting, maybe they added it later

The order confirmation email I received from Polyend for the upgrade doesn't say anything about including accessories.
Jason Mauer
2023-11-20 19:53:39 +0000 UTC
So we are just ignoring this part of the confirmation mail?
To ship - please include old accessories. New accessories will come with the new unit. Please store your projects on your computer and include the microSD card. SD Card - Play+ has a new card optimized for faster loading, do not use the old SD cards.

Yeah sorry I tested the code shortly after and it didn’t work. Though just now I did try to apply again and it worked (didn’t buy tho, emptied the cart). Seems like they’re adding more to the limit occasionally?

Nothing to apologize for. This is amazing. You're amazing!

Finally worked over here @2:32 PM EST. Thanks, Benn!

Please let me know in the Discord if you missed out again and I'll try and get someone to hook you up. I wouldn't have posted this if I knew that there was a tight limit on the discount. Sorry y'all.

Just worked for me! Thank you so much, Benn 🫶

A handful of codes have been added!

Thank you! Doing the same.

I called Polyend US and they told me I could just ship the unit, which I did.
sebastienbarre
2023-11-20 19:09:34 +0000 UTC
That is (was) a generous code, thanks Benn. $400 would not have worked for me, $200 does. For those shipping in the US, don't take my word entirely for it, but I called Polyend US and they told me I could just ship the unit and keep the rest -- which is less weight to ship. Fedex still charged me $50 for CO to FL, but somebody told me they got a much better deal with USPS. Your mileage may vary.

Same. Clif had the secret sauce.

I'm definitely going to just send the unit. Also remember to take out the SD card 😬

Thanks Benn for the discount code and the excellent video (as usual) on the new hardware. Does anyone know with the upgrade if you have to send back the accessories with the unit? I'm not sure if I still have the splitter cable or the SD card reader.

Finally reading my email in SF this morning and 1) new Play+ whoohoo 2) $400 to upgrade boooo 3) Ben Jordan Patreon coupon fuck yeah 4) Coupon usage limit reached sad panda WOMPWOMP
Clayton Harper
2023-11-20 18:26:02 +0000 UTC
Dang. I got the usage limit reached thing too. Was trying to do it earlier this morning, but the site was screwed up.
Douglas Wooldridge
2023-11-20 18:23:42 +0000 UTC
Awesome you got it to accept it. No go here with current cart reloaded. Even tried a new incognito browser instance and a fresh checkout. ~1:18pm EST.
zenkick
2023-11-20 18:20:47 +0000 UTC
Was the discount for $200 USD or PLN?
Wes Darling
2023-11-20 18:19:24 +0000 UTC
I'm still getting the same "limit reached" message.
Wes Darling
2023-11-20 18:17:20 +0000 UTC
And to clarify it was $200usd off. I think the other poster found that it seemed to do “200 money units off” so for buying in Poland it was only the equivalent of ~$40usd
Clif Gordon
2023-11-20 18:15:59 +0000 UTC
Hey folks, give it a try again. I reloaded my cart and reentered the code and it worked this time (10:12 pacific) 🤷♂️
Clif Gordon
2023-11-20 18:15:07 +0000 UTC
Another person says the discount is in Polish Zlotys, a savings of $40
Wes Darling
2023-11-20 18:05:56 +0000 UTC
Bummer… tried for a while like everyone else and now the code isn’t available anymore. :(
Clif Gordon
2023-11-20 18:05:23 +0000 UTC
Agree. I'm not inclined to pay full price for the upgrade -- I do not think it's a good value at $400; but, $200 is, IMO. That said, at least an upgrade path is offered, which does say something...
zenkick
2023-11-20 17:51:04 +0000 UTC
Usage limit reached, sucks.
Thom Newton
2023-11-20 17:41:43 +0000 UTC
I'm in the same boat as @zenkick and feeling super sad about it, since I've been trying their site for the past 90 minutes. Can you talk to them, Ben? This isn't a trivial discount; it's more like the difference between "worth it" or "not".

Same here: Dealing with timeouts, then the coupon got removed.
Westmonster
2023-11-20 17:39:52 +0000 UTC
Aw man. I've been trying since the update here. Coupon was accepted and then checkout always timed out. Now that the site is working better... "there are some issues with the items in your cart" and coupon limit reached. :/
zenkick
2023-11-20 17:32:42 +0000 UTC
Much appreciated, Benn! I was able to put through an upgrade with this coupon code. I was wondering whether it will have an upper limit and it looks like indeed it has, from comments above.

Yep missed out too :(

Sorry, it seems the coupon "bennplusupgrade" is invalid - it has now been removed from your order.
Kanstantsin Trashchynski
2023-11-20 17:23:44 +0000 UTC
I had the coupon in my cart and went to login to my account. When I came back the coupon was no longer being accepted... says it reached its limit... You've obviously had a great impact on their sales today! Hopefully they add the coupon back in... I had it and then it was GONZO.

now just gotta wait for the polyend website to start working again...
Scott Trudeau

Haha, very funny, for Poland this code gives only 200 pln ~40usd, not cool
