Thanks, John

Do you think the "Vegas Pro 12 collection" is the Vegas Pro software? I've never heard it referred to as the Vegas Pro collections before.

Naturally there is no "Vegas Pro Premium" anywhere on this website so we are left to examine closely the feature set shown on the newegg site vs. maybe this chart:

I assume this is the real deal i.e. compares with their $799 Vegas Pro Suite package w/e.g. Sound Forge and the Titler etc. Seems like a really good deal, except that Architect 6 is described as a dog elsewhere here.

This one?

Looks like Vegas Pro 12 is currently referred to as the Vegas Pro 12 collection on the SCS site here

I am also wondering what Vegas Pro Premium is. The product shots look to be real, but I didn't remember seeing a red Vegas Pro logo before (thought they only used red for Sound Forge branding). I came here and couldn't find it anywhere on the site.

I see I am not alone. So what do you suppose the purpose of having this new "red" version is?

Seems pretty clear it is a renamed Suite; probably a change in marketing and their website hasn't caught-up with it yet.

It WAS a good deal...

From an eBay ad:
This is a brand new factory sealed Sony Vegas Pro Premium professional editing, mastering, & authoring. It includes free 180 days tech support (USD $114 value). Vegas Pro Premium includes: Vegas Pro 12, DVD Architect Pro 6, Dolby Digital Professional Encoder, Titler Pro 1.0 from NewBlueFX, Sound Forge Pro 10, and free Platinum Support Plan.

This is sort of an amazing deal; this weekend. AFAICT it does not include HitFilm but otherwise has Sound Forge 10 with free upgrade to 11, which means multichannel audio ie. 5.1.

Erm...? What's Vegas Pro Premium?

It's the Suite. As in "suite deal"... ;-)

No there's no page at SCS you gotta look-and-look. If you're interested there are Q&As for the product at the newegg site that explain most things, though not iirc that Sound Forge is the real thing i.e. multitrack as opposed to stereo-only.

I am in the UK and somewhat envious of the price(s) being shown here, though confused that the headlines changed to 'Now $180 at newegg'

I have checked the Amazon UK site but no joy, although the US site shows this product collection at $309.

Who says the Brits get ripped off?
