Of course we have tried contact to MS Korea local office and main dealers but all is same retail price. I would like to know retail price list of other MS local office in all over the world. Nowadays, VFP will be a rare developing tool for normal programmers. MS Korea and MS HQ should try to evangelize and promote this products. If price is very high nobody purchase VFP8. We could not understand your market strategies for VFP8. But I believe Ken Levy is the best person to evanngelize for VFP and we korean VFP programmers really needs your helps and deeply concern about korean VFP programmers.

This is our area's retail price. Think about it.
MS Korea Retail Price (with Tax) 1150 US$ (1,323,300 Korean Won) Upgrade 617 US$(710,600 Korean Won)
MS USA Retail Price(MS Shop) 649 US& 349 US$
