Tell me, what do you make of auctions like this?

Would you trust this enough to bid? It looks legitimate to me ... but gosh,
how can it be so inexpensive?

There are several of these up for auction ... and I don't mind buying it
from somebody, if it's legal and complete ... able to be registered, etc.
But how do you know it's ok?

I can buy it locally at a Comp USA that's closing .. for $160.00 plus tax,
but if I could save more .. I'd like to.

Nothing wrong with buying from Ebay ... I just want to be safe. Whatcha
think?

Most likely you will find that the seller or the copier who made the pirate disk
has placed the necessary numbers on the CD.

If I make a backup of something I have bought, I place the key on the CD as it
is so easy to lose the original information and without that you are stuck. A
little label gets lost and that cannot happen on a CD.
Were I in posisiton to need to make money in a dishonest fashion then that
backup disk is something I would copy and sell. However some people need to
sleep at night. :-)
