Hi! everyone

I was searching for a low price used software who included rigid body and hair, because I don't have this in XSI Foundation 4.2, and I saw old versions of Houdini on OEM websites.

Here the link: http://www.softwarebizreseller.com/index.php?target=desc&progid=10950 [softwarebizreseller.com]

Is it legal ?

They say that it's full version… full version commercial ?

I'm very septic about this.

Thanks in advance!

I heard that this site "http://www.softwarebizreseller.com [softwarebizreseller.com]" is there just to get your credit card information, after you pay they will tell you something like “ Sorry but your transaction can't be completed now, please try again later” or something like that.

At that point they already have all your personal information.

I don't know for sure but I don't think that somebody is going to sell their Houdini 8 in that price or Motion Builder 7.5 on $80.

Be careful

Personally, I wouldn't send my credit card number to a site in Russia that's trying to sell me an $8k software package for $50. But that's just me.

As a rule of thumb we block all Russian IP blocks here at work. There are a couple of exceptions, but it's severely restricted.
We've simply had too many attacks and DNS cache poisoning attempts. Ukraine as well.

Short for original equipment manufacturer, which is a misleading term for a company that has a special relationship with computer producers. OEMs are manufacturers who resell another company's product under their own name and branding. While an OEM is similar to a VAR (value-added reseller), it refers specifically to the act of a company rebranding a product to its own name and offering its own warranty, support and licensing of the product. The term is really a misnomer because OEMs are not the original manufacturers; they are the customizers.
