tutorials3d.com anybody tried?

I was wondering if anybody had experience with the tutorials on http://www.tutorials3d.com to me they seems a bit expensive, but of course if they are as detailed as the say mayby its good money spend.

Tutorial3D

I bought the Ferrari F430 tutorial incl. the texture and rendering tutorials. I ordered it online, paid with my credit card Saturday evening and when I came home Sunday evening I’ve received an email from them with links, username and passwords for 3 zip files on a FTP server. FTP is not the best way to distribute files, but after trying some different approaches I managed to download the files.
In the zip files there is a folder with a lot htm files, reference images and progress files, I opened the Index.thm in my default browser. The tutorial contains a lot of high resolution image and a little text. The text is just enough for one to keep up and the images are really great. I will consider myself an above beginner level user of 3d studio max and it was no problem for me to follow, but there is no deeper explanation of why you do the different things.
This is not a beginner tutorial, but they also inform you that on their website, there is quit a lot of spelling mistakes which I believe should be corrected in a 105$ tutorial and the FTP distribution way is not the best, but besides from that it is a really great tutorial and the support response time from Tutorial3D is about 24 hours which is acceptable.
I personally like tutorials in the shape of a document and I did 3-4 lessons per night and in this specific tutorial there is 60 lessons, so you do the math it gives u quit a lot of material.
Is this tutorial worth the money, that’s for the individual to decide, but I am ready to buy the motorcycle tutorial.

Any questions please post here!
