The site in and of itself looks pretty decent. Maybe if you want to be more certain you can call their customer service and see how the quality is. Usually fake sites won't take the hassle of setting up a fake customer service.

Seems not: http://www.resellerratings.com/store/The_Software_King

Looks like they multisell their keys.

 

EDIT: You could just get an Key from Amazon (87$) and download Office directly from MS (http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Office-Home-Student-2010/dp/B0039L31JY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1397773686&sr=8-1&keywords=office+2010)
