when i google "buy windows 10 oem pro key" I get tons of sponsored and top first page results selling keys for under 30 US dollars
is this legal, are the keys legit, google normally filters out that much spam so some must have some legitimacy
what's the story?
>>56169959
Jewcosoft tricking you into believing you're saving money.
They're either pirated or from a MSDN license, in which case MS will deactivate every key because you aren't supposed to sell them.
>>56170011
I see people selling them on ebay with 1000+ positive feedback
is it possible microsoft is not canceling the keys?
300 sold, nobody giving bad feedback

There is nothing stopping them from waiting and then cancelling after people get comfy.
>>56171493
why would the seller cancel a key?
if this happens all the time why is it not a well known scam
and why does google give you these people at the top of their shopping page
If you're not buying a license from Microsoft or an authorized retail channel don't buy one at all, because Microsoft is probably seeing little to none of the money and you stand a high chance of the key being deactivated at some point. I've had a key deactivated ~half a year later and it was from a seller with near 100% positive feedback and many hundreds of sales. If you can't afford retail just use KMSPico for now (the source for it is a mydigitallife thread, anything else is likely malware, even good looking sites called KMSPico.com, etc)

the seller doesn't cancel a key, microsoft does.
Apply yourself, comprehension is your friend my dude

Are you fucking retarded?
10 Pro is free if you upgrade from 7 or 8.
>>56172796
>10 Pro is free if you upgrade from 7 or 8.
no
Probably bought with stolen cards.
>>56172969
Yes it is, shithead. Even if you upgrade from a pirated 7 or 8, you still get a free legit 10 Pro.
But Pro is useless anyway, pirate Ent if you don't want ads and maximum spyware in your OS.
>>56173015
>Yes it is, shithead. Even if you upgrade from a pirated 7 or 8, you still get a free legit 10 Pro.
nope
they stopped doing that last month
way to be wrong and an asshole about it
>>56173015
That free upgrade deadline passed, I feel embarrassed for your certainty there. Please consider abandoning Microsoft entirely and embrace Linux, it's s very rewarding endeavor in my opinion. Try Fedora our Ubuntu, everything werks

Windows is done, suicide watch is over cuz they all is kill
Nobody cares about their news

Don't know how it is handled in Amerifatland but in Germany the legislation protects the right to sell unlocked oem keys. I bought several win7 keys for 17 yurobucks each already. No problems.
Save your money and use the microsoft toolkit instead
>>56173165
I'm not recommending anyone to use Windows, let alone Windows 10.
But if you have to, at least don't give money to MS, for fucks sake.
They're giving it away for free, begging you to use it, and people still want to buy it. s.m.h. and l.m.a.o. @ people
>>56173187
> don't know how it works in amerifatland
It doesn't work, that's what we're saying, now can I either have just one bite or are you even going to finish that? because it smells delicious.
>>56173201
Nah, I have my parents on Ubuntu and they brag to their silver-haired friends how they never get viruses. They don't know fuckall besides web browsing and text editing and that's enough for them.

I stand corrected, to a point.
This accessibility upgrade does not seem widely publicised, as I've seen nothing of it in my news feeds which includes sites such as Technewsworld and Arstechnica.
And given microsoft's own page that is the 1st result in Google (in addition to their annoying AF malware-eqsue prompt messages in W7 and W8) says the upgrade is over, you can understand why nobody but cripples and poorfags know about this.
>>56173365
>Technewsworld and Arstechnica.
How about you get better news sources then. Arsetechnica lol
Seriously, it was covered by tons of sites, even normie non-tech shit.

Can I still get win 7 keys from microsoft?
How's their average price on the market?
If it wasn't for vidyia stuff I would just use ubuntu all day but I gotta dual boot sometimes.

Windows 10 works just as well without activation. If you don't care about the you need to activate your Windows installation message. Everything works literally just the same.
