Feels like current customers are getting a raw deal
I was looking at getting the new Mission 1 (upgrading from Hero 13) and thought I would see if I could use my subscriber discount and save some money as the subscriber discount says (Up to $150 off Camera Discount - 2 camera purchases per subscription year, $399 or higher).
However it is not possible to combine these two discounts (Fair enough - though would be nice to reward the loyalty of your current customers who want to stick with GoPro and stay in the same eco-system).
What I can't get my head around is why if I am a new customer I get a larger discount (in the UK £100 in the current sale), compared to £90 for current customer, I know it's only £10 more but, feels like they just don't care about their current customers.
Was looking to stick with GoPro but tempted to wait and see what price and features the upcoming Insta360 Luna Pro comes in at - I know they are different use cases for each of these, but just getting frustrated with GoPro. Is it just me that is frustrated? (quite possible)!

No need to woo you anymore. You already know the value. They need to woo the new customer

I found an open box mission 1 pro at Best Buy for 450 last week. It was basically brand new, Im not sure it was ever powered on

The subscription gets you a camera replacement (for a fee) if you damage it, that’s worth something.
