Why you should not buy Traktor on ebay
Posted on: 11.04.2013 by Michaele Mehn
Hello,

So yeah, i wanted to buy traktor, as my friend wanted his software back.

I checked on ebay and there was this guys selling one for 40$. It seemed normal as i often see people on djranking s selling their serial for about that price.

I just received an email from the seller saying that he had shipped the CD, but he also provided me a direct download of my software so i could enjoy it right now, while i was waiting for the official CD.

The download was a crack from traktor 2.6.0. No serial.

I now doubt i will ever receive my traktor CD, and if i do, it will probably be another cracked software, with no serial (proof that it is a crack) and so their is no way i can register my product on NI website...

And if it would happen to be the real software, his idea of sending me a cracked software as a download would still be shitty.

Damn i want to track him down and shove his f**king CD up his a**.

Do you know what can i do in order to get my money back (if possible) ?

All depends what your buying. I believe there is much more risk inherent in buying something like Traktor that is/has been easily cracked.

Software piracy is rife on eBay. I wouldn't buy software.

I buy all my Gundam kits from eBay. Reputable sellers are no risk.
Gundam kits. Aww. Dats cute

Haha jk. I love Gundam.

PayPal:

a) Are insured to the hilt
b) Will refund without question in the majority of cases where there's an issue, and ALWAYS where you can PROVE you've been duped/let down
c) Take the liability of every transaction on your behalf, and then chase the sellers down themselves

In the past 10 years I've spent WELL over

As for buying any dj softway it best to buy from the real company or their reseller. Auction are not consider as retailer, you took the chanced and got scammed a lesson learned the hard way. If the person sell his software he should of sent you the whole thing not partial. As for buying from another perdon the serial or product is not transferable read the terms on the software and you'll see the fine line. It better to buy your own software and safe yourself the headaches.

I have never seen this option. To be honest I'd rather pay upfront then at least I know exactly what is in my account in real time (so to speak). I'm no good with credit, I get confused.

Noone I've ever bought from with Paypal has ever agreed to ship before payment has cleared. The seller is at enough of a disadvantage already.

When I check out with Paypal it gives me an option to pay 14 days after the transaction. If everything goes well and the item is as described they take the money out of my account 14 days after the sale.

even if the money had been moved out of the account, paypal will refund you out of their own pocket, that is how they have like the best customer service in the world.

Paypal is generally safer for buyers; be sure to research up on all the popular scams before selling anything though.

I would not purchase anything on eBay without using PayPal. As said the safest bet usually Paypal will take care of you

Scammers can move money out of hacked accounts before you've tried to get the money back. They can also place redirecting links within auction pages that steal your Ebay and Paypal login details. They often ask you to pay money as a "gift", essentially giving up all the protection that Paypal provides.

Buying from individuals always carries more risk than buying from a reputable shop. You have no warranty coverage and no assurance that the product you're buying is genuine.

Let this post be a lesson to everyone: buying EVERYTHING on eBay (with PayPal) is a BRILLIANT idea. It's essentially a no-risk scenario.

I has no serial number (it is pre-registred) and when i open it it has a big UNION logo (a group that crack sofware) with the DMG and a "crack" folder lol hahaha

It was like a mediafire link. So legit...

I've called paypal and they will refund me !! yessss

Wait what? How do you know it's a crack? What'd you download and from where?
