View Full Version : 5000 Web Templates for only US$14.95! Scam???
Skelaniya 09-22-2005, 02:09 AM I'm interested in buying these templates but, but doubt that's a scam, I mean how could someone sell 5000 templates with resell rights for 14.95? Could they be stealing it from someone else and selling it?
I appreciate your input regarding this matter.
GIGANET 09-22-2005, 02:14 AM Probably pirated TemplateMonster.com templates. Can easily find 10,000 templates for $50!
WireNine 09-22-2005, 02:20 AM Did you find this on ebay? Just wondering... :rolleyes:

joephill 09-22-2005, 12:06 PM What is the best place to get a lot of templates very cheap?
Like 10,000
Thanks
clark05 09-22-2005, 07:16 PM I dont know of anywhere... I would just go to templatemonster and find a site that your satisfied with and just spend the $50-$70 bucks.
Because, if you do find someone who sells like 10,000 templates, the templates probably wont be very professional.

Actually you are wrong. I can find 10,000 exact replica templatemonster pirated templates within 30 mins all for $50 or less!
There is no difference between the 10,000 or the ones from templatemonster because they are the same.

PMs are being sent now...
Odd Fact 09-23-2005, 12:43 AM You can find that collection on eBay from $2.00 to $10.00. The set is made up of pirated designs from Template Monster, Boxed Art, Design Load and a few others.
joephill 09-23-2005, 05:59 AM if they are pirated why does template monster not shut them down?
Don't know if it's a scam or not, but a decent template doesn't cost that little. Nowadays bulk templates don't have any value since they have been overused and seen. If you really want to make a good deal look for some unique layouts being sold. They cost more, but they can be used and no one will make fun of your site looking just like other 1000 others.

Template Monster is successful at shutting down a lot of them, but for every one they find, there are ten others they do not know exist. That's why I send regular reports to them on these sites whenever they're mentioned. In some cases, TM does not have the legal jurisdiction to shut them down because of loose laws. But generally, they're pretty effective.
joephill 09-23-2005, 04:03 PM There is a guy selling 14GB of templates for U$10 - 3 DVDs
Shaliza 09-23-2005, 06:50 PM No offense, but the templates on the TG site look like crap. I guess with some serious tweaking they could work.
Tech4server 09-24-2005, 09:16 AM The templates you get are real useless . I got 10,000 templates pack from my host for signing up with them , and all of them are suitable for a small personal site which no one even visit!. I wud buy templates only if they show the screen shots . templatesbox dot com gives out free templates they look good too . You can try them instead . Template monster costs too much for ppl like me
