Question should I get this?

Hi all,
I'm new here and newish to php and am looking to start a business on the side.
I'd consider myself a beginner to intermediate php person and have started coding stuff that i'd like to offer my future clients.

Someone passed me this url of someone closing up shop who is offering to sell all his code. I went through the list and I actually want some of it. It's expensive but it would save me months of coding time....

is it,

a) worth it?
b) too expensive?
c) can get it for free?
d) waste of my time...

the url is [url]http://letsclick.to/markjoyner/[url]

opinions anyone?
It'd save me months but it's a big outlay for me...

Thanks people

Personally I think it's a gimmick and it's a waste of money, but that's just me.

I wouldn't recomend it.. Sounds too good to be true, and if it sounds that way it usually is.. Besides, there may be some mallitious code in there somewhere that you don't want in your system..

Well look at it this way: You will at least have the satisfaction of not paying for something that may or may not help you out.. You could have bought it and had to scrap it for being a piece of crap, or it could end up being something you didn't need at all

Besides.. now you can code it yourself and have that satisfaction of saying that you did it
