Portuguese Guide Deluxe eBook review
A Portuguese phrase guide for English speakers with 500+ phrases, simplified pronunciation and practice dialogues, sold as a PDF for EUR 9.90 once with a 60-day refund.
Worth a look
For under ten euros, the Portuguese Guide Deluxe describes its contents concretely: a phrase count, pronunciation help, situational dialogues and vocabulary topics. The one-time price and 60-day refund window make it a low-risk purchase. What is missing is any way to check quality before paying, since there is no sales page, sample or author, and the promise that you can start speaking from day one is marketing. Worth a look for travellers on a budget, with the caveat that it is sold unseen. Caution.

Portuguese Guide Deluxe eBook at a glance
The Portuguese Guide Deluxe is a PDF phrase guide for English speakers with no prior knowledge. The order form says it has more than 500 ready-to-use phrases with simplified pronunciation, practice dialogues for real situations such as checking into a hotel, ordering in a restaurant, a job interview or an emergency, and vocabulary chapters on family, professions, food, technology and more. It is pitched as a practical companion rather than a grammar textbook, with scenes set in Lisbon, Rio de Janeiro and Porto. Because it mentions both Portugal and Brazil, it is worth noting that the form does not say whether the phrases follow European or Brazilian Portuguese. The file is a download, with nothing shipped. There is no sales page, no sample page, no page count and no author. The price is EUR 9.90 once, charged in euros for US buyers too, with a 60-day refund window. The seller appears only as the account mlangbein51cce0, which also sells a four-language bundle for EUR 17.
