After seeing things that require Kontakt 5 full version, I was looking into upgrade paths and came across this site. At first glance it looks very legit, and contains a lot of older (boxed) software, which makes sense, but as I perused further I came across RX4 Advanced and Ozone 6 Advanced for ridiculously cheap prices (like $15 and $10)... This immediately gave me the willies.
 
I just went back in tonight and cannot find the RX4 or Ozone anymore, but I am still not confident that this site is legit since the contact info is a simple email form with no company address/phone number.
 
Originally I was looking at the Komplete 6 (11 DVD) set, but now I am not sure if this site is a complete farce or not. Has anyone ever used these guys?

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck is it a duck? Or a bad site?

Their site is registered in Moldovia. Read into that what you will, LOL! For my money, they are almost certainly selling cracked software. 

Actually I spoke in error. I looked up the WHOIS info for vstclub.com, not vst-club.com
 
But the correct info is not much better. It's registered in Russia. Without wishing to stereotype, an awful percentage of the world's internet crime originates here.

So, please do not.
The last time I wasted my money to one company registered in US, but the amount was not worse visiting my lawyer (I do not have insurance for that). Funny enough, that was an attempt to buy score for song about practical "democracy" (in the same country).

I happen to have Komplete 6, that I don't do anything with anymore, since I got Komplete 8 Ultimate a while ago now.
 
If I am able to transfer/sell/whatever with it, I am open to ideas.  I actually also have Komplete 5 just lying around too, but some of the components from that release didn't seem to like running in Windows 7, if I recall.
 
Anyways, if I am legally allowed to do something with Komplete 6, someone please provide something I can review that confirms it to be OK, and shoot me a private message to figure out what to do.
 
I tell you this - I was SOOOOO happy that Komplete 8 Ultimate came on its own external drive, rather than a zillion DVD's, it saved me hours of installation - I was definitely a happy camper.
 
BONUS - mettelus - I am in Maryland too - in Beltsville, right by Route 1 and 495.  Wahoo!  That sounds like a beer might be in order.

Hi Bob
Just one thing - if you upgraded from 6 to 8 ultimate (or even 7 on the way) you wont be able to transfer it - I think they sort of cancel your version of 6 once you have upgraded to the next version, if you see what I mean. 
Hope that helps

Both Nigel's are correct.
 
However, if you did purchase Komplete 8 independantly from the others, you can sell Komplete 5/6. I've seen people buying it at KVR to use as an upgrade path for the latest version. You should check with NI (email them) and confirm it.

Alexey, let me apologize for sharke's remark - and apologize for myself, too, as I have made the exact same observation in the past.
 
The sad truth is that some countries have weak consumer protections, and Russia happens to be one of them. We certainly don't mean to slander Russians in general! I have bought products from Russian (Voxengo) and Eastern European vendors (Meldaproduction, D16, PSP, Strezov), as well as other places with sketchy reputations such as China, with zero problems. It's the vendor's reputation that counts, not their geographical location.
 
But anywhere that consumer protections are weak, crooks will take advantage of that to rip people off. The weaker the protections, the more wary a consumer needs to be.
 
There is certainly plenty of fraud here in the US, too. The difference is that if one gets scammed in the US, Canada, UK or the European Union there is recourse for adjudication. If you were ripped off by a US company, there's at least a chance you can get your money back. I'd have no idea how to pursue a complaint against a Russian company.
 
Back on topic - no, vst-club.com has been discussed here before and is absolutely NOT legit.

Well, the licensing HAS allowed me to have Komplete 5 and Komplete 6 installed and active on 2 separate computers while also allowing me to install Komplete 8 Ultimate on my third computer, so it doesn't look like they cancelled any of my prior licenses.
 
I'll look into it more later tonight - @mettelus - if NI is OK with it you can HAVE my Komplete 6 install discs, for the price of a beer or 2 and some wings or ribs, since we seem to both be somewhere in Maryland.
 
Shoot me a PM if interested,
