| 275174 | 2004-09-24 08:14:00 | Read the fine print on their site, when ordering perhaps: Orders of more than 5 (five) copies to a single address will be invoiced at the following rate. US$25.00 per copy P&P US$5.00 per copy The above debt is incurred on delivery, delivery is based on the expiry of 10 (ten) working days from product shipment. Basis of numbers of copies ordered is derived from the numbers per physical or postal address for delivery. Should you have a legitimate reason for greater numbers to be shipped to one location, please discuss this with us at the address provided below prior to ordering. Payment will be enforced using contracted debt collection services based in the country of delivery. I calculate that to be $29,850 US, or about $44,840 at todays rates. The local Baycorp agency will consider you a friend for life (or whoever owns the delivery address) Do I think it was "nice" of you? No, it's not a nice act. We all share the costs when we buy software. That just increases everyone elses costs, wastes resources and makes it less likely that such upgrades will be repeated at no cost to the rest of us. |
