Adobe's upgrade rort

[Alan Litchfield]

Can anyone explain to me why it is that Adobe charges USD399 for the  
upgrade of FrameMaker to version 9 for domestic customers but USD515  
for the same thing for International customers.

There are no shipping costs when it has been downloaded and even if  
shipping were included I don't see how they can charge USD116 for  
shipping a small box anyway.

No I haven't asked Adobe, who there could possibly tell me. Certainly  
no one on the helpdesk.
