File retrieval

I deleted files from a shared folder about a year ago and now found out that this means that the files are deleted for everyone. Is there any way of retrieving these deleted files (so, deleted beyond the 30 day period)? Some of the other people who this folder was shared with have a paid Dropbox plan but I don't.

 

Your help will be so much appreciated.

    The files would have probably been recoverable for 180 days (as that's the paid recovery plan), however, as its over that time scale I'm afraid they are not recoverable at all now - even if you paid to upgrade.
