CBTNuggets for less

Hey guys,

I just watched my first CBTNuggets video and I really like the quality of it. What I don't like is the $$$ I'll have to shelf out to buy more of them straight from CBTNuggets.

Do you know of any 3rd party software resellers, etc. where I could purchase these videos less.

Any replies much appreciated.

    I have been looking for the same thing. The quality of the videos are good. And the information is valuable. They seem to have very good instructors.

    I would like to know as well.

    I doubt you'll find anything like that, but I may be wrong.

    somebody that has already used them may be willing to sell the videos.

    If anybody out there is finished with their CBTNuggets CDs and needs some spare cash contact me, I could really use them in preparing for my MCSE.

    I'm looking specifically for this package, but any close variation will due too.

    MCSE 2003 Certification Package
    Contains Exam-Packs: 70-270, 70-290, 70-291, 70-293, 70-294, 70-297 & 70-228

    Thanks

    The CBTnuggets use "Single-User Version Licensing", which means it is illegal to resell them after you used them. This was a known issue a couple of years ago when people started reselling CBTnuggets thru eBay. CBTnuggets has asked me once to become a reseller for the European continent, so I know a bit about their rules. I don't make those rules, but just to remind you, it is against our forum registration terms to trade or resell software illegally.

    I believe there are some 'offline' resellers, but online CBT nuggets is probably the only legal option. Your best bet for a discount is to join their (and our) mailing list as they, and we, frequently have special offers with up to 25-50% discounts. By using this link www.cbtnuggets.com/techexams to register or buy we get a very fair amount of the sales price.

    Thanks for the information WebMaster. Although CBTNuggets are very expensive, I think they are still worth the investment.

    You're welcome :)

    I don't think they are 'very' expensive. I agree it's a good amount of money, but compared to Learnkey they are very cheap, and they are just a couple of bucks more expensive than the TransTrainers (I like those too though). Based on the comments I've read and heard over the past 5 years, people either think CBTnuggets are very great, or just very bad. If you like their style, it's a very good product imo. I also like the fact they've always offered some decent-length free videos online. Even if you don't use or plan to buy them, it's still worth a visit to watch those.

    Maybe I can do a promotion this week in our mailinglist as I mentioned in my previous post. I don't have much control over which products they'll offer a discount for though. I'll see if they have anything planned for this month...

    I guess I was wrong in my previous post, I 'do' have some control of which products :)

    icon_exclaim.gif This week (Wed/Thu) I'll be sending out an offer in our InfoLetter (see option in user profile) for a 10% discount on all CBTNuggets. The message will contain a promotion code that will be valid till the end of September. It will be about the MCSA / MCSE 2003 package, but the code will be valid for any and all CBTNuggets you buy until the code expires.

    E.g. the MCSE 2003 package already includes a discount compared to buying the 290,291 and other exams individualy. They don't offer discounts on these (the 10% is offered by us), so this is the cheapest way to get those packages. And you'll be supporting TechExams.net at the same time.

    As this topic says: "CBTNuggets for less" :D
