If you previously owned any version of Vellum 3D v3, v4, or 98 and upgraded directly to Graphite v6 or v7, we’re offering special price incentives if you’re ready to step up to Xenon or Cobalt. Please call your local Value Added Reseller or Ashlar-Vellum directly at +1 800 877 2745 to see how much your vintage serial number is worth on an upgrade to our current versions of Xenon or Cobalt.
