REALLY cheap win8.1 pro retail key - Is it legit?

[Danzas4321]

Hey guys. So i was looking around on reddit recently and found a guy selling windows 8.1 keys. he has over 200 Confirmed trades so seems pretty legit. he is selling windows 8.1 Professional keys for $25 or £15. i really wanna take him up on this deal but are the legit? i mean if they are how are they so cheap?

Many thanks

I would doubt it.

Forgot to mention he has 325+ Trades on the software swap page. he seems legit but i kinda have doubts. should i just try it? its only £15 and if it works thats ALOT cheaper than the £150+ MSFT charges for a retail win8 PRO key

No, that is NOT legit. Confirmed trades or no.
Windows costs what it costs. And a Windows license is just as much a part of a new PC as is RAM, GPU, case, whatever.

They are cheap, because he did not obtain those keys legally. Either some crack thing, or selling MSDN, TechNet, or some company's VLK.

Not legit in the least.

If it seems to good to be true, it is.

If worried, pay via PayPal. If it doesn't work, get money back. Ask for references.

That sounds too cheap, though they may have been gotten through an enterprise deal.

He has 325 comfirmed trades and over 150 comments on his post. seems Ok and it is over paypal so if it doesnt work then can i just charge back?

Closing this to prevent any future problems.

Last word - that is exactly as legit as some guy selling iPads for $40 out of the trunk of his car.
