Got to agree.

I bought a CS5, the dealer believed it was legit. I couldn't register it, so luckily the dealer refunded my money after a couple of replacements and advised me he was no longer going to sell software... he'd been as much a victim as I was.

Naively I tried again, but was totally shafted this time and blew my $700. After failing to gain recourse through Paypal, I went to Adobe. They confirmed it was a chinese pirate copy (and that I'd done my dough). I sent all the details and the counterfeit software to Adobe for the basis of a case against the seller. The Adobe rep from their counterfeit software investigation department advised me there that eBay is full of counterfeit software.

Al.
