Where can I get windows for cheap?

[Guest]

Where can I buy windows 10 for cheap? Does anyone know? paying 200 pounds just to have windows on 2 computers is a bit pricey...

200 pounds? No.
£84.99

Of course, this thread will be inundated with various illicit key seller sites.

If it is significantly cheaper than the major authorized retailers, it is almost certainly not a valid license.

Cheap is not legit , that is ^

You can buy it of Amazon like USAFRet said for less than £200....

Amazon is a safe and legit site and therefore I would highly recommend using it, also if you have any problems you can always get a refund

Kinguin is good. Not sure if it's legit or not but it was recommended by either Jayztwocents or Paul's hardware (can't remember which).

In other words: No it's not good....

I must have been lucky then. Guess it's a lottery

EDIT: The post actually said that it was a working key, but just couldn't be used to upgrade Windows 10 Home -> Pro. May not be legit, but in this case at least it worked.

When I'm spending money on a product, the only time I want to see the word 'lottery' is when I am buying an actual lottery ticket.
I could post a dozen more similar posts...

I haven't actually seen a situation where it hasn't worked yet. I'd say that you have similar chances of failure as if you bought from somewhere like G2A - not 100% guaranteed but pretty close.

G2A is no more a legitimate reseller than Kinguin is.
They are simply different white vans in the walmart parking lot, selling different stolen TV's.

Whereas Amazon/Newegg/Microcenter is like going into the actual store and buying an actual legit box with your product. 100% guaranteed, not 'close'.

I'm out...I have a tile floor to lay.

By the way if you read my post I said 200 pounds for 2 licenses, not one!
Prices changed though 😀

You already have one for the existing PC. Why do you need 2 more?

You bought a new CPU for your new PC, right? New RAM? New GPU? New case?
The OS is no different.

Of course, there is this free alternative.

The Windows OS is just as much a part of the cost of a new system as the CPU or PSU is. If you don't like that, then either go with a free linux distro or don't build a new system.

<Redacted by Moderator> is a pretty good place to go. Of course it's a little sketchy but I've had friends who purchased windows and other apps without a problem here.

Moderator comment - Even the parent site does not like that.


Edit: yeah, just looked into it some more, not what I thought it was.

It's not legit ^

[Dark Lord of Tech]
