Please also take a look at the price. For me it would be difficult to sell a
first class GUI together with a first class engine for that price.

You have the choice:
Get the Shredder8 engine with an excellent GUI for 50 EUR/USD at chessbase.com
or the Shredder Classic engine with an excellent GUI for 30 EUR/USD at
shredderchess.com.
