| | | Purchasing Photoshop?
I'm looking for Photoshop CS3 or 4 and have spotted this site: Adobe Photoshop : All Items Free Shipping
They claim that the software is authentic.
Has anyone experience of this (or similar) company?

Hi Jim,
I don't know anything about the company but I do know the prices they are charging are ridiculously low.
I tend to work on the maxim "If it looks too good to be true, it usually is."

Casts a few doubts as to how genuine the software is to me. |

Stick with someone like amazon or another well known brand, especially when it comes to software. |

I got mine from Amazon as a 'student edition' for a very reasonable price (thought I was just getting a photo shop upgrade but ended up with the whole CS3 suite!  ).
A few years ago I remember a lot of people got into trouble because they'd bought software in good faith from some firms based in china that turned out to be pirated software.
Have a look at a few price search engines like kelkoo or pricerunner and you should be able to get Photoshop CS3 for a reasonable amount. Even if it's a tad outside your budget just now, it's worth saving up for, trust me  .

That site is also showing no score for Google page rank, which can sometimes be a good indication that the site has only recently been created.
I too would stick with a known and reputable supplier.

Certainly looks too good to be true to me. |

Buyer Beware springs to mind.
If your eligable for the Student Edition then go for that.
You'll save a fortune and it's no different to the full program.
