from the auction description:


NO BOX (BOX IS FOR DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY)!
 
NO MANUAL! MANUAL IS ON DISK IN PDF FORMAT.
 
CD'S ARE USED AND ALREADY REGISTERED!
 

I wonder if these are CD-R copies of the programs? If all you want is the program and don't care about ripping off the company that produces the software, by all means bid on it. If it's not pirated software, it certainly seems unethical. I also wonder why the folks who already registered the software don't have the discs in their possession?

I use limewire for software.  it's a peer to peer like kazza but without all the spyware etc.
