Purchasing Used Copy of Delphi

[tbohon]

Am looking for a reliable source for a used copy of the Delphi package - the prices I've seen for the new ones are out of budget since this is for personal enrichment and not connected with my 'real' job. Would like to know if anyone here has purchased used software (other than eBay, etc.) and, if so, from where?

Not interested in pirated/illegal copies and prefer the entire package rather than just the CD - although, in a pinch, just the CD might work.

Thanks in advance.

Tom

You should note the licencing retrictions that will apply to a copy of Delphi purchased this way, you wont be able to sell any software you write with an 'Educational' copy of Delphi.
Borland give away copies of Delphi 'Standard', but this also has the same restriction.

Seem Delphi included free before on the front of Computer magazines, restricted like above, check the back issues. You could just ring up companies which may use Delphi and ask. They might be willing to sell you version 5 / 6 cheaply.
