Find the bogus CD.

All of these pics are the same bogus CD!
Please forgive my ranting, you see I bought, in good faith,
Photoshop CS2 from an EBay-er,
only to find it had been bootlegged.

Found some solace in taking pictures
of the blank CD from various locations
in my living space;
enjoying the reflected colors;
Still lovin Photography!

Nice that you channeled your frustration into something creative but that was a lousy thing to do you. I assume you've reported the seller to eBay?

Sorry to hear about the bad experience. Haven't shopped at EBay for quite a while.
Nice creative captures with this CD.

Well, the cd was good for something. V.

Very creative. Neat colors in the reflections. I guess Ebay should be "buyer beware."

So far I have been very lucky on eBay. Sorry to hear about your bad experience.
Nice work on these shots.

At least you got some good use of the cd! Now you can make an ornament out of it!! vote

I've never bought anything on eBay but I've heard good and bad.
Too bad you had a bad experience there but hopefully the disc
(despite it's being a bootleg) worked? Or was it totally empty?
If so, that person should be ashamed of themselves. Hope you
didn't waste too much money.

Very theraputic I'm sure. Though it is an interesting photo op.

These are excellent shots! GMV How did you know it was bootlegged? I got a PSP9 from ebay and wondered the same thing about it, but it worked fine.
Kathy Pedersen01-Sep-2006 12:46
What an inventive shot, people are right, you made the best out of a bad situation. Voted.
Deborah Lewis01-Sep-2006 12:37
Sorry to hear about your ebay experience. I hope you reported it and gave the seller a blackmark! Great work!
Chris Thorpe01-Sep-2006 12:32

I have been deceived so many times on Ebay. At least you managed to make a silk purse out of this pig's ear.
