We just bought vb5 last week and a friend of mine who bought the software found a coupon to get 10% off. So we got vb5 for $225 instead of $250. We were prepared to pay the $250 because it is worth it. We are using 5, kinda wish we would have gone with 4 but given the time spent working with 5 before we realized the issues that still existed caused us to bite the bullet and stick with 5. I am anxiously awaiting all future patches to continue to make 5 a great product.

Nope, $249 now. The "upgrade discount" really is a slap in the face for loyal customers.
what? 249$? wow we spend 300$ for vb4...and new license owners gets the whole thing for 249$....

this is really a slap in the face i totally agree

So what you guys are saying is, it's a slap in the face for old stuff to be cheaper. It should always be the same price, no matter how old it gets.

vb5c get so many complaints and negative feedbacks at this moment, at this price.
I believe at this moment no one want to buy vb5c.
how can they raise the price any more?

But they're not selling them as two different software packages. They're selling you a license to the current version, which happens to include access to all previous versions. This has always been the template by which they've sold stuff, even back when they were under Jelsoft. Just because you happen to dislike the current version is not the same thing as it being two versions that should have two prices. Getting the same product for less due to happenstance is how business works. For software, that's even more commonplace.
