Buying Vectorworks in Ireland

[Neptis]

Hello. I’m in Ireland, part of the European Union and outside the zone announced for the early adoption of the subscription only model. I’d like to buy a perpetual licence but seem to get forwarded to UK dealers who don’t have this option. What’s the best link for an EU purchase?

How is it going with that?  I have been looking around the EU to see if it is possible to buy a perpetual license, so far nothing.  Spain says they sell also a version in English but only list the subscription for example.

Nothing yet. It’s very odd.

I told the Spanish guy about someone in Ireland looking and he asked me to send your contact info but better if you contact him,  Jorge Matos <techlimits@gmail.com>  For me there is a dealer in Italy so first I need to ask them.  Let me know what answers you get from him.

@Neptis Looking at the VW International Distributor map, it seems like there are no VW dealers in Ireland - which is probably why you’re getting forwarded to UK dealers: @Tamsin Slatter does this sound correct?

That page also says that:

If you are unable to locate a distributor in your country, please contact the Global Sales Department at:

globalsales@vectorworks.net
International: +1 410.290.5114
U.S. Toll-Free: 888.646.4223

Might be worth calling or sending them an email.

In Italy we can buy for €3,400 plus 22% iva, includes one year of service select.  Would be interesting know if the price in Spain is less.

Thanks all. I have had approaches from a few resellers from this post. The main difference seems to be the cost of Service Select, currency (some offering non-Euro pricing) and the IVA, VAT charges. At least it seems possible!

Will do.
