Thesis 2.0 Price Increase?

thesis-2.0

Just hot from the latest version of Thesis 1.6, talks are rife about the impending Thesis 2.0 and what to expect from it or whether there will be an increase in pricing. In my previous post announcing the release of Thesis 1.6, I wrote that there might be a price adjustment somewhere down the line. It was just a hunch on my part, seeing the improvements that has been made on the Thesis Theme.

Increasing prices for products that have gone through much research and development is a natural course that all businessmen takes. The price of products has to justify the man hours and the effort that has been poured in. A true businessman worth his salt will not be selling a product that has been freshly developed with the same price as one that has been improved over the years. You can call it capitalism at play, but that’s the way free economy goes. Thus if the price of Thesis does go up with version 2, it won’t come as a surprise.

Already hints have been dropped by the developer of Thesis himself when Brian Clark posted in one of his post, writing in the last paragraph,

But don’t think you have to wait. Our current model and pricing provides all Thesis customers with every future update and unlimited access to support… so you can get started with Thesis today and never miss out on what’s coming next.

(And if you caught the hint by my use of the word “current,” you understand that this will change in the near future…..

Now if that is not an obvious hint that there will be a price hike comes Thesis Version 2, I don’t know what is. Seems like my hunch is not too far off. Don’t hold back too long if you have intention of getting this greatest theme ever. Another hunch of mine is Thesis Version 2.0 will be release in tandem with WordPress 2.9. because they got to keep up to be compatible. And that is not too far off.

Lock down the price now with a purchase of the Thesis Theme 1.6 and any future upgrades will be free. A ending note advise. Once and for all, get the Thesis 1.6 Developer’s Option.

Hey, I was thinking about that some time ago when I realized that Thesis is very cheap in comparison to what to actually receive for your money.

If DIYthemes change their business model I’ll be fine with that. I do very much appreciate what they made possible with Thesis.

And as an added benefit we are going to increase income made with the lovely affilate program ;-)

Whatever they are going to charge, I know that Thesis 2.0 will be just outstanding. They got a customer for life, that is for sure!
