So what do you think? As their ad points out Photoshop 6, alone, sells for over $600 @amazon.

I would ask Adobe what they thought of it.

Think about it.....Thousands of $$$ of software for $40, it HAS to be warez.

Don't waste your money guys. It's low to copy software you use regularly and not to pay for it, but it's SCUM to SELL someone else's software.

Gee, thanks for pointing out that out, Richard98. Oh wait ... no where there does it say that they are ORIGINAL copies, or UNIQUE SERIAL NUMBERS.

100% FULL WORKING RETAIL VERSION just means that it's the full program. It doesn't mean that it's LEGAL. In fact, he doesn't even say they ARE legal!

This is so very low

Why would the lack of the words "ORIGINAL copies, UNIQUE SERIAL NUMBERS and LEGAL" imply that they're illegal or bootleg copies? I don't see those words in software descriptions from other online vendors.

 

[e-Spider]

Agreed - too good to be true. Gotta be Warez.

 

[watdahel]

I'm buying no matter what all of you say. I'll go find my credit card now. These guys look honest and I should be getting my very legit softwares within a few days. Oh, golly I can't wait.

 

[Richard98]

Link above Deleted. It was not my intent to promote possibly warez or possibly bootleg copies.

If your going to steal software you might as well steal it for free.

LOL!! But why steal it yourself when you can pay someone else $40 to steal it for you?
