It looks like a scam to me.

RE: This look dodgy to anyone? (WAS: Photoshop CS RAW Converter)
Nope - he will only sell for £16.49 through Nochex, bypassing ebay. Notice it is closed bidding and you cant buy it unless he authorises you as a bidder - which he wouldn't do when emailed. He told me "This is not an auction but a buy now listing for £16.49." Still - even though it can only be measured by Douglas Adams ultimate improbability drive, there must be more than 0% probability... > -Original Message- > From: Frits Wüthrich [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 24 February 2004 16:39 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: This look dodgy to anyone?

Regardless of his/her feedback on eBay, there is exactly 0% probability that his individual is selling a full, legal copy of Photoshop for £17. - Original Message - From: "Mark Roberts" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, February 24, 2004 09:53 AM Subject: Re: This look dodgy to anyone?
