SQL 2K5 Standard pricing

Hi, Does anyone have any experience buying a SQL 2K5 software online via an OEM software provider? Their pricing is surprisingly low. For example, SQL 2K5 Standard per processor version is $1,900
SQL 2K5 Enterprise per processor version is $4,800 They claim they are legal to sell with Microsoft certified reseller logo there and their customer comment section has both good and bad comment. Any thought? Wingman
It is better to contact Microsoft in this case to cross-check what has been offerred, also you can take references from that Vendor and have a look at what type of licensing has been provided. Satya SKJ
