Has anyone had any experience with this kind of outfit.
It looks too good to be true. The current release of 3rd PlanIt is 8.06.000 for $125.00 or so. This purports to sell 8.04.000 for $18.00
Anybody know?
Most likely someone selling software they downloaded off of a bit-torrent site. Might as well just steal it yourself and save the $18. I don’t think I would trust this place … no contact info.
I did use 3rd Plan-It software to design my layout back in 1998 though. It had some problems at the time, and the owner bent over backwards to help me.
That’s kinda what I thought. Now I have confirmation. Won’t go there.
Brian, I would think that your friend the Chinese Pirate would be too afraid of breaking a fingernail to be effective as a bada$$.
:lol:
He’s the boss man. Just barks orders to the crew - they do all the real killin. No need to break a nail - just take the credit 
I sent an email about this to the webmaster over at trackplanning.com -
The legitimacy of this on line software seller came up on an on line model train forum -

Are they a licensed seller?
and got this in return -
Hi Brian,
No one is authorized to sell 3PI other than myself. All others are pirating the software and pocketing the money.
