EDIT: nevermind! Sorry, complete mistake, they are legit. You can't buy from them, they only link to us. See my a second post below.

Just thought I'd warn you guys. If you'r ever thinking about it, do not buy from www.versiontracker.com. Here's why:

As you know I've recently finished Vegetator Professional. The company I'm selling through, Epsilon Zero, is selling it via paypal straight from their site at www.epsilonzero.com, and there is also a download of the trial available at www.download.com. (no, I'm not just trying to advertise ). Well, this is a phony page that www.versiontracker.com made to sell copies of my program, matched at the same price that Epsilon Zero is selling at:

http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/win/140317

I'm 100% certain that Epsilon Zero is not selling there. Version Tracker probably stole the trial off download.com and are now selling it on their site, and if that is true, anyone buying the program there would be buying a trial version.

Please, PLEASE only part with your money on [href=http://www.epsilonzero.com] if you are planning on buying Vegetator Professional, and only download the trial from there too (which will link you to download.com, the safe source). I would advise anyone else who's done business with versiontracker.com to not do so in the future.

There always has to be those few people who ruin everything...b]

Actually, I don't see a buy link on that site. In fact, when I click the download link it allows me to download the trial.

I would say this guy is just mirroring your program, which isn't entirely bad. Of course, if you don't want it there I'd contact them and ask them to remove it. But in all honesty it looks like a legit mirror, at least on the surface.

Also, why are you using free godaddy hosting for a website where you sell a product. Don't be cheap, buy some hosting at spidahost if you want a reliable host, or you can sign up for my free hosting if you look for my thread on this forum

I think, actually, they're just listing downloads. Nothing to worry about . If they had a buying-button, it'd prolly link to Epsilon Zero.

I know, I feel really stupid. I just saw it.

Rats, it looked like you could buy it there because they listed the price. Apparently they just work with download.com. LOL

Forget what I said.
