1/5

posted May-04-2012

buy.com is linked to our 'Company Perk's' website so automatically I TRUSTed this site. Big mistake! I'm a part-time student and wanted to buy the student/teacher edition of Adobe Photoshop CS6 but since it's not yet available, you have to buy the last version of it first and get a free upgrade to CS6 which is due for release soon. I ordered the CS5 thinking it would be cheaper ($193) to buy from them than from Amazon which would cost me $249.00 (CS6). I later realized that buy.com charged me $279.00 because the version that would qualify for the upgrade is the CS 5.5! BAIT AND SWITCH!!!!!!! I went back to their website and sure enough there was a fine print that says CS5.5 qualifies for the free upgrade. I searched for the 5.5 version but couldn't find it which goes to show that there was really a malicious intention of misleading you into thinking that you're saving money by going the free upgrade route. The company I'm working with must have overlooked buy.com's very low bad ratings (1 star).
