    I did a forum search and here is a old post about this directory. (looks like you didn't dig deep into looking up this directory before spending your money.

    There are many pr7-pr6-pr5 directories which were created on dropped domain, some survived Google's update and retained its PR while others were penalized, sometimes luck do matter in SEO business :)

    It's kind of like driving your car into a large pile of manure and asking why it smells bad. Don't market your website until you have some idea how to do it correctly, lots of help is freely available.

    As far As i know , that Website Directory have Duplicate Meta Tag Description . but the other case i never Heard google will slap Website cause of that.
    maybe they intent to manipulated PR or Have some invisible Links Point to their website like Dirbull Case.

    I know this man invested lot of money in building his directory. Valid PR6 14 year old domain with real backlinks don't come for free. He spent good money on building and promoting his site e.g. buying advertising etc.
    But in the end he was selling 5 $ listings on fiverr. I remember I saw his gig. Cheap low quality links killed his site. I am not an expert but I think there is hope for him. If he manages to remove crappy links from his site.

    Thanks for digging through and getting this information for us! I am constantly looking for niche directories for my clients and, like you said, it's extremely important to do your research on these sites.

    So wait a minute here. What made you believe this was a "high quality directory site"? The high PR? Or was it really a "high quality directory"?

    I see other's have already answered the obvious question for you.

    I think this illustrates just how wrong it is to gauge the viability, strength and usefulness of a directory based solely on its PR. I did not enter in the directory business in order to pass BS PR for short term boosts to suckers that were willing to shell out the cash for it. I'm in this for the long haul and do what I can to simply help people get indexed and help both the SE and end users find a way to your site. Link juice is NOTHING if you have no one actually making their way to your link, including the SE.
