Where to buy Illustrator and Photoshop CS6
« on: June 18, 2014, 05:43:52 PM »
Anyone know a place where one can LEGALLY purchase a copy of photoshop and illustrator cs6?  The cloud subscription does not make sense based on how we use these programs and I would like to upgrade from our current CS2 versions.  I have found the entire suite for $650 but only need photoshop and illustrator.

You have no need for Acrobat or InDesign?......

Adobe still sells the CS6 products, they are just not available in the box. You have to download it.

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

I bought both from Adobe directly, as upgrades (the last they offer, it's all in the cloud now).

Just a heads up on illustrator cc.. I had the chance to try it out.. The updates to this version is a strip down version of astute graphics vectorscribe and inkscribe.  So CS5 or Cs6 with astute suite of plugins and you're ahead of Ai cc.

As an Illustrator user, I hadn't heard of Astute Graphics before, what a cool site, such useful tools

I would stay away from that Ebay deal... It says one license, which means the second install was probably used to upgrade the original user to 6 and they are selling off their hard copy of 5 to pay for the upgrade. Seen this done a million times. Technically, the hard copy becomes 'unlicensed' when the upgrade happens.

That said, I think any of the boxed products bypass the system now since the only active items are the CC editions. - Ron
