Hi, I intend to buy P6, and I'm looking for the best deal. How much did you pay for Poser 6 (no upgrages), the full version. Amazon has it for 190$, anyone found better than this? What's the lowest price you've found for P6? Thanks

Go to www.contentparadise.com - this is especially worth looking at if you're in europe because content paradise will not add tax!!!!!

Oops! I forgot the price. Its the download version, Full or Upgrade at 7% off for $129. That's about 75 at the current rate if you're in the UK.

I found this place called CampusTech where it's only 140$ http://www.campustech.com/c/campust/23569.html And on EBAY there's a guy in UK selling an oem version of POSER 6 for only 20 GBP!!! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7170578215&category=90723&ssPageName=WDVW&rd=1 Is it leagal?

For 20! I'll wager its pirate, ebay is full of pirate goods, I would be very, very cautious about purchasing from there.

Just checked that E-Bay page. Here's what the seller says: "Please note: This auction is for the cd only, no box or documentation. serial code and instructions included. this is not a trial or time limited demo. Full working version. Please be aware of these facts before bidding." Word to the wise: avoid this one like the plague!

@philebus: I just checked contentparadise. When you add it to the cart and change the type to "Full Version", they add 120$, so its 249$ in total. So the offer for 129$ is quite misleading from my point of view.

You're right, that is misleading - the promo says full or upgrade! Sorry about that. On the other note - I had a look through ebay last night and was shocked at just how much open piracey there is. I'm stunned. Don't ebay police their site at all?!?! I notified e-frontier at least but really, I'm horrorfied - ebay's owner's should be ashamed of themselves, they've no excuse to allow that much to go on that openly.
