    DCK Shop - buy vB License from there?

    Hey all... just seen this: http://dckshop.com/

    Now, that's a way of getting vB licences for less!

          Looks like a guaranteed way to lose a site. And $85.

              So it is illegal?
              Jut a random internet person.

              A message to all illegal users!

                Not really illegal, but I would recommend against using it.

                  Basically, they are a marketplace, they allocate licensed to you to which they have in their adventory.

                    I can't see how that is legal.

                      Basically, it is legal, becuase they transfer the licenses to you, after buying them.

                        FWIW we do not allow anyone to purchase licenses at a bulk rate discount and sell them cheaper than our standard price. Also as previously noted they have to have our permission to resell a license.

                          Steve, no one confirmed that they were a reseller, even Ray was suspicious...

                            They are not an official reseller. But since they are clearly selling licenses they are, by definition, reselling vB. The difference is they are doing this without our permission.
