Hey kiddos. I found this pretty tricky looking 3D suite on eBay, but I need an experts opinion.
Here is the link.

Are you about to rock?

Then [b]I SALUTE YOU!!!

Looks like a complete scam to me. The screen shots from the games are from Blender, the impressive looking renders some are from Bryce. There are spelling mistakes all over the entry, there isn't one single screen shot of the application itself. In a nutshell, I think you'd be insane to shell out any money at all on this.

Infact having looked at http://www.kncmedia.com (the ebay seller) I can see that they have a bad habit of selling free open source software! There is Open Office, rebranded as 'SUPER OFFICE EDITOR PROFESSIONAL' - ick.. these guys ought to be shot.

@Richard - Ha! They also have disguised Audacity as "POWERFUL DJ SOUND AUDIO EDITOR PROFESSIONAL". These guys are UBER cheapskates.

I can't believe they didn't even try to take off the Blender logo on the top of one of the shots. Photoshop isn't just for pictures. This reminds me of a laptop that supposedly ran on a hard drive that had no moving parts. Even they did a better job screwing around with Photoshop. Somebody'll buy it though.

well, if it is a scam, contact Ebay, you can get your money back. But are you sure you want to fuel the pirates?

When FPSC develops enough, lets make a Redwall game!
