Figured someone out there will be getting Tiger and could ditch their copy of Panther.

Retail (non-system specific please) DVD or CD version is fine. The cheaper the better.

PM or post with your offering.

Can someone tell me how long will it take for me to get my copy if I recently bought a Powerbook. Im confused on how the rebate works. Thanx

That would be Tiger, or do you mean your Panther CDs go on sale?

$30 shipped would be the highest I would go. Probably too low for you.

You can go to almost any store after Tiger is released, especially resellers, and bring coupons. It will be on sale and if the store allows coupons on sale items, you can buy a single user lisence for $130 - $50 for sale - %20 from coupon.

I never thought I'd see this thread...

= more than I wish to pay.

I was hoping someone wanted to offset their investment in Tiger by selling their copy of Panther. I'm in no hurry as its just for a test box at work, I am sure sooner than later a whole bunch of peeps will be "giving" Panther away...I can wait.

I don't care for any extra packaging. Just the CDs or DVD is fine by me.

In that case I think $35 shipped would be very reasonable

Seller references? Where are you located? Can you do $30?

I'm located in South Yorkshire, UK.

Sorry that's the lowest price I can go. I think USD 32.00 is really a bargain.

That's because the price is inclusive of post and packaging from the UK to a US address.

I hope that you'd understand.

FYI, Tiger doesn't really like my Griffin Powermate.
