Hi All
I know I may be weighing in late on this "discussion" (have been out
of the
loop for a bit), but thought I'd just add to it.
One thing I really love with those sort of "buy it cheap sites" are
when you
actually come to order it.
Sure, they advertise the product cheap, but go and run through the
order
process. I added one to a cart and went to ship it to WA (my
postcode 6110).
The shipping price is $38.50exGST for the education version. The
total price
then went up to $122.40incGST.
Considering the education RRP from another wholesaler I get it from is
$102incGST plus their $11 freight charge, it still works out better.
A find this a lot with some of these "cheap" sites.
It would be like advertising a new iMac worth $1600 for $800*
(*Conditions
Apply) then saying that it has to be delivered and the delivery
price is
$900.
Just my 2cents worth anyway.
Side note - if anyone is interested then yes I can get the Adobe
Photoshop
Elements 8. The Retail version has an RRP of $154. Am happy to do it a
little bit cheaper for WAMUG people, but like everything there's
very little
in it these days (and I still have to eat, even if it's just one
meal a day)
;o)
Hope that helps a little. :o)
Kind Regards
Daniel

Hi Folks
On the Adobe site the price of Elements 8 for Mac is currently US$79
which is AUD $88. On the same site the price for Oz is AUD175.
Does anyone know a way around this apparent rip off?
Cheers

Hi John,
No, I don't know away around this, unless you have an American Credit
Card, but a quick search brings up $99 from Streetwise.

I wonder what Daniel Kerr (MacWizardry) can get it for. Daniel can
normally source software at a very competitive price.
I must get in touch with him as I've been thinking whether to upgrade
my Photoshop Elements 6.
Cheers,
