Photoshop CS5

[Hennie Nel]

Anybody knows where one can buy CS5 like in the old days without downloading it.?

Hennie - as far as I know - you can't.
I would imagine the ONLY thing would be if someone has a legal copy of CS5 for sale after moving over to CC.
I am still working on CS6 - and have no wish to migrate just yet

Refreshing comment following a discussion I had with a fellow photographer this weekend who's contention was that only major corporates are required to buy software.

Im not sure what you mean by ' not downloading '( if you mean CC /creative cloud) but as far as I know the closest you can get to that is to buy CS6 from Adobe, but you will have to download that, and that will be without any new features released after CS6

O'ok I see now you have to call Adobe if you still want to buy it, I wasn't aware of that😳.

I read somewhere they even stopped doing that - can't swear to it as I havent checked. BUT
Why would anyone pay for a 3 year old (at least) program - which is not longer updated - not even ACR for newer models. I seem to recall last price for CS6 (when I bought) was around 8k or something like that. it no longer makes sense. Unless you can buy a "second hand program for a good price" I would no longer consider it.

I am seriously not moving to CC unless I have to - should it become unstable, I get a new body, or OS not working with it anymore - that kind of thing
