This is what you said:
For 65 pounds I could get the basic script running on 3.6. For an additional 25 pounds, I could get it modified to add additional functionality.
For those of us in the U.S that don't know how much money that is, let me show you the conversion.
65 Pounds = $127.76
25 pounds = $49.14
Total cost = $176.90
I guess he feels that this modification is worth more than vBulletin itself. For the record, he offered a modification to the script. I simply asked for this "working" version he had. (The same one he offered to repost on this site less than 30 days ago.)
I realize I could simply decline the offer, which I did of course, but it is a matter of principle here.
To solicit sales using the private message system, for a modification you didn't even write to begin with is deceptive and in my opinion, dirty business practice. To over charge as he did, which makes it appear that whoever he is sending that too is an idiot, is insulting.
Calorie released this mod for free. I am certain that another version of it will be released at some point, for free, or Calorie himself will port it to 3.6. (If it hasn't been released by the time my new site is developed, I myself will be porting it over.)

If you really thought I was pushing for sales on repairing others hacks by replying to your PM why would you now post that fact on the actual thread???? (Have you been touching that herbal stuff on your site )

Well considering the amount of money you are attempting to charge, and the fact that the base script you are trying to sell belongs to someone on this site, I see no issue with exposing you. I am not advertising you, I am warning people of you. How could you even begin to believe your modification to this script is worth more than vBSEO and with the added mod to it, worth more than vBulletin itself? It clearly shows you over charge for any work you do. Those prices are beyond insane.
You do realize my site is called "
Herp Center". Herp stands for "herpetology". That is the study of reptiles and amphibians. Many biologists use the term "herp" or "herptiles" for all reptiles and amphibians. Where you got the drug antidote is beyond me. My site deals with reptiles.

Seriously if I was relying on advertising to make money, you have just given me some more :lol:

I don't forsee anyone contacting you for much work after seeing the prices you are charging.

Hope it didn't offend you.

Your prices in themselves are offensive.
