I recently got a Hauppauge WinTV-Go-FM TV tuner card and need some good recording software. I have been recommended CyberLink's PowerVCR II and it looks great, but it is $129.00 for the Deluxe version. However, someone on eBay is selling it for $9.99 (Buy It Now). He has 525 positive feedback and only 2 negative, so it isn't shady, I'm just wondering how could he sell it for so much cheaper?
 
I guess it could be OEM, but Cyberlink charges the same price for the boxed version as for a download of it.

As for the $5 shipping, he mentioned this line:
This is the full version sold as a retail package or as an electronic download.

I would opt for the download... but I also find that a little wierd, I doubt this guy has a server and I doubt it is off his own connection, so it is probably the info to get it from the Cyberlink site.

If I try it I'll let you guys know and will post in the Hot Deals forum if it is legit 🙂

Which would be a good idea, if it weren't for the fact that one isn't allowed to post links to eBay auctions in the Hot Deals forum. It'd get locked up pretty quickly, even it was legit.

Ah yes, good point, thanks JW 🙂

Buzzman - yes, but the guy keeps doing it, I think there will always be a few of them.
