Vbulletin 3.8.5 license

Hi all,
I need a license that can be transfered to me for vbulletin 3.8.5
I have a forum that someone just gave me, a phpbb website, and I want to make it a vbulletin site. I really don't like the 4.0.x version, so all I need is 3.8.5.

I generate zero income from my site, so the cheaper the better.
Thanks
Craig

 

I don't mean to stray off-topic, but you've got a nice-looking forum.

 

I dropped you a PM about this. Please get back to me soon!

I agree! Great job!

 

SuperBlob,
I just sent you a pm....

 

Thanks Nick.... :thumbup:

 

i still buy ?

 

I actually bought a Vbulletin 4.0 Publishing Suite License (No Expiration) along with 4 websites for $149 on ebay. Vbulletin has already transferred
it into my name.
Frankly, the only thing that I didn't like is knowing that you can only transfer
a vbulletin license once. After that, you're stuck with it forever.....

 

I had no idea forum licenses were listed ebay, and did not know that vb4 licenses could only be transferred once.

I learn more every day.

 

I am pretty sure they can be transferred more than once.

 

Not exactly. vBulletin license can be transferred to another party Once a Year. Thanks.

 

I agree. No need to change it.

 

Below is the actual email I got from vbulletin.com which talks about the transfer being only one time. I highlighted it in red.
Also, here is the ebay item I bought. It was extremly easy to buy and transfer. For the price, I thought I got a good bargin.

--------------------------

We have received a request to transfer a vBulletin license to you. Due to fraudulent license transfers, we now actively seek the buyer's confirmation before processing the transfer.

The license that would be transferred is:

License xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Product vBulletin 4.0 Publishing Suite
Start Date Nov 21st '09 09:27am
License Status Active

The listed Expiry Date (for vB 3.x licenses only) is for access to the software updates for your version of vB. You may continue to run the software after this date. However in order to access newer versions you will have to upgrade the license.

Please read the license agreement, located here:
http://www.vbulletin.com/order/license_agreement.php

It outlines our license transfer restrictions, including a limit of one transfer per license. You will not be able to transfer this license in the future.

In addition please note that since chargebacks can occur up at any time after a purchase, there is a slight possibility that the person you are purchasing this license from may issue a chargeback against their original vBulletin purchase - thus invalidating the license being transferred to you. In this event, you would no longer be allowed to use the license. Please note that this has occurred in only a small number of cases but it is something we feel you should be aware of.

Also if the old owner continues to use this copy of vBulletin and this license is being used on more than one site, this may result in the license being revoked.

In addition in some cases the owner may dispute that this was a valid transfer. We do everything we can to ensure this doesn't happen but we cannot guarantee that it won't. If this happens the transfer will be considered fraudulent and the license will revert back to the original owner.

Please respond affirmatively to this email stating that you understand and accept these terms and risks and would still like to proceed with the transfer.

Best regards,
Steve Machol
Customer Support Manager, vBulletin
