I have two machines (let's say motherboards with things where most stuff has been replaced/assembled by me - an usual user, not manifacturer) that I have to activate W10 Pro on. And about the keys, I am mainly interested about are they really legit if bought as OEM. I have local sellers and I see a few affiliate links from my country to cheap keys from https://www.godeal24.com/ and a few other sites.
I find OEM keys for 5-10 euro while retail ones are 6-12 times more expensive than them where I live. eBay seems useless as sellers there either seem not trustworthy, either are a bit more expensive.
However, there is something that confuses me about Microsoft's rules and after checking some comments over internet about it.
I guess they'll activate my OS, but what are the disadvantagees, except for being able to use it on only one device (motherboard) per key?
If I ever need specific support from Microsoft, would it be refused for my keys being OEM and not bought directly from Microsoft? Should I hide that I've used non-retail keys/from other source?
If I travel to other country/at airports-checks/whatever, if I happen to use my PC in a country or somewhere with stricter rules, is there a possibility that I'd have problems (including law/legitimacy issues)?
