So i were checking the prices for the Adobe CS5 Design Premium and are kind of baffled.
If i am to buy this in Norway (where i live) the Design Premium package will cost me 3 810 us dollars (22 387 norwegian kroner), but the price in the US Adobe store is 1899 us dollars.
So the question is: Are there any online stores who sells and ships Adobe products worldwide? And if there is; will this work as well here?
Thanks.

There's a legal side of it...
If your company has no offices in the States you can get into trouble. Here in UK the cost is the same figure than in US, only in Sterling. So about 1,50 times more.

Same in Australia, about a 50% markup on the US price with the current exchange rate.... you are getting

On a serious note, if you register as a sole trader in the us (can be done online) you're sorted?

it's because they have to ship it to you. and because it's bad weather at the moment it does cost adobe about £1000 to do that. it's a pretty good deal really. Think how much it would cost to go to their office and pick it up.
- actually. it would be cheaper to jump on a plane, stay a couple of days in a nice hotel and pick up a copy from a dealer.olem

strange.... I can see why video cameras NTSC/PAL can be marked up like this, but software?!?

very strange indeed.
so what i can get out of this is that it's basically not legal to get a version from the us?

It is because of your taxes in europe - courtesy of the EU. When are you guys to realize you're getting ripped off and receiving nothing in return.
Make sure you check the licensing before you buy anything from the US to send to europe. Make sure the software will still work.
I hear the Queen is looking for her followers to worship her while she rapes and pillages the European people.
Good day!
