    Bossa,

    There are a lot of training materials for sale on e-bay.

    Unless the seller has made it, I would guess it is only licensed for the person who originally purchased it and shouldn't be sold on.

    I agree with Boyce.

    If he created it himself it may be good or it may be utter rubbish, I guess the only way to find out is to ask the seller him/herself (but then again if s/he did create it, s/he would say it's the best thing since sliced bread).

    As stated above, beware of sales of this sort of stuff on eBay due to the potential for copyright violations... if that's the case here, then using them is no different than stealing a downloaded copy from a P2P site.
