They can't make money off the mods themself, but they can make a fee for providing them on a CD. Though why anyone would want to buy them rather than downloading for free, is beyond me.

Sorry about that caps, just wanted to get the post seen asap. so what this guy is doing is ok? i agree why anyone would want to buy it when they can come here is beond me. it just seems out off order to me. and someone did buy a copy too.

While this may not be a legal issue, its certainly an honor issue, and it seems to be well, dishonorable. I caution to speak too loud since the seller is most likely one of the people browsing this forum as week speak! For the price, the seller should have at least gone for current versions of the mods and FLMM on there. But, as they say, buyer beware.

It gets posted about every 3-6 months or so. It's been going on for around 2 years or more, same person.

I haven't bought them, but I can easily understand someone doing so ... if you are on a cr*p server such as mine. All the server's I've tried -- I'm in Asia -- are just as bad. The downloads always get corrupted!
