Please help...Did I get scammed when I bought this marketing course?

    Hey everyone. I would like your help if possible. As you probably know Jeff Walker just launched Product Launch Formula 2.0. I was just getting ready to purchase PLF 1.0 from him when he announced that he was taking it down and releasing version 2.0. I was going to purchase that version until I saw the price ($1,997). So I decided to go to eBay to find a used copy of PLF 1.0. Long story short I found one from a seller with over 100 transactions completed with 100% feedback that lived in the US, so I decided to buy it for $685 (including shipping).

    Everything was great with communication and he shipped right away via Priority Mail, and I just received it today. The problem is that when I opened it up I can't help but wonder if the course is a knock off. The printing is terrible. It is very hard to read and the ink is faded in some spots to where it is almost unreadable. The pictures are so bad that you can't hardly make out what the picture is. I haven't listened to the CD's yet but he did mention in an email that the content was great but the audio quality is bad in some spots, which made me wonder. The graphics on the covers of the cd cases and the manuals are not the highest quality either. They look like what was pictured in the original photo on the PLF 1.0 site but I still wonder because it seems pretty low quality, especially for a Guru of Jeff Walker's stature.

    My question for you guys is do any of you own PLF 1.0 (an authentic version that you ordered directly from Jeff Walker's Site)? If you do is the print quality bad like I described or below average at least?

    Your help would be appreciated! I'm going to go listen to some of the audios right now to see if they are bad as well. Thank you.

    Best Regards,

    I think you've been had. The original printing would have been sharp and clear. Hopefully you can get a little value out of it. Maybe the audio will be better. Unfortunately you got what you paid for.

    It is about 1/3 the original price and the seller did point out the defects beforehand. I wouldn't call that a scam. Maybe just that you did not have a good bargain.
