Unfortunately, I don't qualify for the promotion. I do like to buy from the manufacturer when I can. In fact, I just bought a 6x8 refurbished Intuos serial tablet from Wacom for about $140 (I put the link above in case anyone is interested). You are absolutely correct that one has to be careful buying stuff from eBay. There _are_ lots of scammers there, and I report every one I find. So far I have had very good luck by limiting purchases to stuff still sealed in the box. I bought Carrara and Photoshop that way, and was able to register both. Thanks for the info, everybody.
