Piracy on Ebay..

I cannot believe this software is so cheap.

http://cgi.ebay.in/MICROSOFT-VISUAL-...QQcmdZViewItem

This is surely a pirated copy.

What the hell is going on ?

I'm not sure how much that is as i'm from the UK, but there is always pirated software on eBay. I tried to purchase a Microsoft Office 2003 disk for a tad cheaper than the retail price as I was broke and I got one for £15 and it was a download URL and cracked serial-key.

Report it to Microsoft and eBay and they will stop the auction as they're usually good at doing so.

Once i had talked to a Microsoft representative about this on the phone and they gave a reply that they will check it out but piracy is still continuous on ebay.

A Macromedia representative had told me that 70% to 90% softwares on ebay pirated.

I personally find it very hard to purchase anything off from ebay these days, I have so many friends who have been ripped off by other un-honest people. For example my friends bought a $2000 downhill mountain bike, he didnt receive nothing and the guy who sold him didnt reply back at all. Another example, my friend was looking for a xbox and some was selling a Xbox box, he though it was a Xbox, but he actually bought a Xbox box, that maybe his fault for not reading things carefully. Still i cannot put my full trust into buying stuf from Ebay.
