G2A Legitimacy (help please)

So... I wanna buy Windows 8, but don't want to have to shell out $120 for a copy on Newegg. I've seen G2A has good deals, but it seems like a scam. Is it? If it's legit, which copy should I get? Please tell me if you have any experience with their sales.

It's legit, so long as it's from G2A, and not a third party. Make sure the seller is G2A, and use their shield service, just in case. 

Can you give me a good link for the copy I should buy?

Palm to face... They're all good. Just make sure you have the g2a shield clicked when you buy it. Paypal is the preferred payment choice
