The formulas are as follows.
1-) Open your Ebay Account in a European country. Make the purchase from there.
2-) Please ask someone who has a Paypal account.

What?   
I bought mine without a Paypal account, just chose to buy as guest.

[okmn]

i bougt it with credit card as guest user ,different country and adress information.




what will do now ?
he will send me a download link ?

[Yasin]

No need to use a VPN. It is enough to use the address defined in your account as a European address.

[Yasin]

Note: knowing the address information, I made it fake. For test.

What I would like to say; "without using paypal".

You made me scared 

[OG]

Paypal is not usable in some countries. I saw your post about the method of using credit cards on ebay in the old forum (for buy protons) .

Hi,
I purchased PDS many moons ago, I have a dongle. If I purchase can I just get a download link rather than stuff sent by mail? I live well off the grid and mail from non "jungle" countrys can take an age 😉

Hi everybody,

I bought the new compiler on Ebay, and the procedure was a breeze. I went to the UK Ebay website and copied the exact name of announced compiler and went back to Canadian Ebay and copied the title in the search section. And sure enough I was able to purchase with my credit card.
Thank you Les for continuing the support on this great compiler which I admit spending countless fun hours of programming.
Cheers.

I bought my dongle free version 2 days ago and received the download link from Les withing a few hours.
Installed easily (on my ancient MacMini VM XP) and it works perfectly.

Guess I won't be needing my 2 dongles again!

Looking forward to using those newer 18FxxQxx devices soon!

Les, will you be posting update release notifications and corrections/additions made, on this forum?

As I understand it there are no plans for a Positron PIC 32 however a 16 bit 200 MHz PIC is coming.

@LeonJ
Don't throw your dongles away.
I keep old copies of the compiler just in case I have a compilation problem with an old program.
I've needed an old version occasionally. Better programmers than me would rewrite, but heck I'm lazy
Cheers

Thanks John,

I intend keeping my dongles for sure. They've enabled so many projects previously.
I've kept most of the old compiler copies.
Occasionally I have to rewrite some older code but that's okay. It usually turns out more efficient the second time around anyway.

I'm hoping to obtain a new Mac Mini with the M1 processor but it seems the VM market has to do some catching up first.

I've been using Parallels/XP on a Mac Mini 2011 very successfully up to now but can do with a bit faster compile turnarounds.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Leon.
