Not true. In the May 27th PCWeek, PCTools has a 4-page ad offering V7 for $59+$6 until July 31, and they will not cash your check or charge your credit card until the 71st day after shipment. In the same issue, Norton has a 2-page ad offering Utilities 5.0 for $59+$5 until June 30 if you send the title page from your Mace Utilities or PC Tools product manual.
