Autodesk has altered and extended their upgrade deals until October 6th:
Upgrade your AutoCAD 2009 through 2014, and save 10% off the upgrade. Our price is $2600. No subscription is necessary for this deal. Even better, turn in a really old version of AutoCAD (2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2002, 2000i, 2000, R14), add a one-year subscription, and save 30% off the price of a new seat. The price, including the subscription, is $3475.
Contact us now to get started.

Right now, Autodesk® Maintenance Subscription customers receive their software via download and if needed, can request a physical shipment of media at no charge.
Starting September 29, 2014, customers in U.S. and Canada will be required to pay $30 (US) for a physical shipment of their software. The cost includes standard shipping.
Autodesk claims that 'Software Download has become the most effective and environmentally-friendly way to access Autodesk software.'
Many others would say it is cheaper, and that is why Autodesk is doing it. And they would probably be right.
The bottom line: Request free media now through the Autodesk Subscription Site. We have prepared a blog post on how to navigate the subscription center here:
