I have Photoshop Elements 11 in the original packaging that I bought a few years ago and just opened. After installing it asked for the serial number, which would be provided after submitting the redemption code. This was in the package and I inputted it but Adobe says "contact retailer". Come on...did I actually buy this package new and unopened or did I buy some gimmick?

    It is likely counterfeit.  These days it is very easy to make a package look like it is a genuine sealed factory package.

    Here is one example of why not to purchase software on eBay:
