ebay - buyed illegal copy of a game?

hallo

zunächst einmal verzeiht bitte das ich auf deutsch poste. aber um mein anliegen genau zu beschreiben, ist das vonnöten, da meine englischkenntnisse dafür nicht ausreichen. dieser thread geht auch ganz speziell an die deutschen user hier im forum. also bitte nicht böse sein - denn ich wäre für hilfe sehr dankbar. - sicher bin ich auch im falschen forum aber es ist wirklich dringend - zumal der thread auch als warnung gelten soll. seit so frei und verschiebt oder löscht ihn aber bitte gebt mir support was diese angelgenheit betrifft.

ich habe vor wenigen tagen bei e-bay auf das spiel vampires the masquerade: bloodlines geboten - heute kam das spiel.

es handelt sich um eine russisch-englische version (diese beiden sprachen sind bei der installation wählbar). zunächst einmal macht schon die installation keinen vertrauenswürdigen eindruck. ferner ist das cover selber gedruckt. nur die cd´s scheinen als wären sie original.

nach der installation konnte ich die cd´s entfernen und konnte ohne spielen. und das obwohl das spiel mit safedisc 4 geschützt ist.

nun wollte ich ein update machen. hatte noch eine gamestar cd mit dem update auf version 1.2 drauf. das update meldet jedoch das keine installation erkannt werden konnte.

was soll ich tun? mich an ebay wenden? der publisher (activision) ist bereits kontaktiert und den verkäufer habe ich auch noch mal zu rechenschaft aufgefordert.

http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...MEWN%3AIT&rd=1

das ist die auktion...

danke für euer verständniss

Im not too sure, but I think this is what he was saying:

hello
first of all forgives please which I on German poste. but lie close around mine exactly to describe, is that necessary, there are not sufficient my English knowledge for it. this thread goes also completely particularly to the German user herein the forum. thus do not ask badly its - I would be very grateful for assistance. - reliably I am also in the wrong forum however it am really urgent -particularly thread also as warning to apply is. since so freely and shifts or it however please gives me support whichdeletes these angelgenheit concerns. I have vampires the masquerade before few to meet with e-bay on theplay: bloodlines required - today the play came. it concerns an Russian-English version (these two spoke are selectablewith the installation). first of all the installation already does not make a trustworthyimpression. furthermore cover is printed. only cd's seem as if would be they originals. after the installation I could cd's remove and could without play. and although the play with safedisc 4 is protected. now I wanted to make an update. still one had gamestar CD with the update on version 1.2 drauf. the update does not announce however an installation to be recognizedcould. what am I to do? me on ebay turn? more publisher (activision) is contacted and the salesman I also stilltimes to account already requested.

Ahhh it sheds more light

@Daywalker: Perhaps the russian version is already updated to the version your trying to install?

Are you sure its a silver disc (original)?

@creedman

nice translation...

@dabhand

the point is - the game is a illegal copy - i'll a original game.

the game cannot updatet because no registry entry exists - thx quake_ger for this tip.

btw. - no reply by the publisher (activision) and by the salesman...
