The number one market place for webmasters - SEO Talk, Domains and more

I see on Market place forum, there are many people offering script packages.
Each package contain 10, 100, or 1000 scripts.
But is it safe to buy that script?
That script have possibility that they were modified before sold to us.

Usually those scripts are outdated and are free.

Some of those 10 script packs are legit though and may be worth getting. And while the scripts might work, they might have bugs or security flaws so it's not wise to use them unless you know some PHP and fix the flaws yourself.

Not really, the buyer before buy the script he did a search and maybe visited the official website, if it's free he doesn't need to buy it, if it's paid he would like to find it on warez forums or maybe buy it for cheap prices from other sellers!

My suggestion: is always a better idea buying scripts directly from developer. Doing this your script will be up to date, original, free of any hide exploit and you could count with support from developers in case something goes wrong...

I agree with masterweb, never support crackers & warez scripts!

So at this point a newbie could ask: What's the sense of a script marketplace on the forum?, easy: on this kind of forums you can contact the developer, salesman, owner of a particular script. So you can trade directly with him / her...at same time developer, sales man, owner can promote the script or even support clients via the board.

Thanks masterweb. So, free scripts is annoying because we can't get any help from anyone.

we can get outdated script quite easy, some use them as a gift or reward (even the script is useless)
the script will be outdated very soon, i think we need to learn to do more maintainence and updateing the script.

Hi alec11, so what's the matter here of modifying the scripts? If they modify the scripts before selling to others, when they buyer starts using them, there would be some trouble? Or some track? Something important information would be stolen?
