That is called Microsoft Imagine today. If we turn to the licensing agreement (https://imagine.microsoft.com/en-us/Institutions/Guidelines):

>4. Using the Subscription Benefits
>Your Subscription will provide you and your Authorized Users with access to certain Subscription Benefits expressly intended to support your education, teaching, non-commercial research, or efforts to design, develop, test, and demonstrate software applications for the above purposes.
So in other words, it can only be used for the student's education.

>Subscription Benefits are personal to you and you may not transfer, sell, share, sublicense, assign, or lend them. Your access to and use of the Subscription Benefits, including their provision to Authorized Users, are subject to the terms of this Agreement and any separate terms that are specific to the particular benefit.
They cannot gift or sell those keys.

In other words, most of these would be clear copyright violations that could get you sued and labeled a criminal? Fuck yis.

But OP wouldn't be the one violating the law, it'd be the reseller. How is but a simple, innocent consumer to know if not explicitly told how the reseller got the key?

You can't possibly be acting in good faith if the price is fishy.

Don't student licenses need a registration server on the unis network nowadays?

They sell other products and use Windows to lure in buyers. At least in terms of your typical computer hardware store.

i saw people sell windows 10 pro key for 9$
