Hi there. Thanks for pointing this out. We are always working with our pricing to find the best possible option and as the world changes we try to keep up with everyone’s needs. We are currently experimenting with a reduced pricing plan of $229.99/yr and $22.99/mo to see if we can allow more access to Blender learning at a reduced price and still keep the doors open, as they say. Since it is an experiment we didn’t change the pricing FAQ, but I can certainly see how that creates confusion, so I have gone ahead and updated that page now.
We are running an introductory offer during BCON for a discount on the first year with CG Cookie to welcome some new folks to our community. Sorry you received that email. That likely means your profile is tagged with an inaccurate subscription type in our email provider.
If you are on the $288 plan and would like to swap to the $229.99 plan, reach out to support@cgcookie.com and we will be happy to assist you with the adjustment.
