Windows Key on G2A

[Ardy]

Hi guys, i need a key for windows 8.1 for cheap and i saw that on G2A costs 28€, is it safe to buy keys in that website? And if i buy the key can i upgrade to windows 10 in a new rig where i'm going to install windows 8.1?

Thanks

Imo get it from http://reddit.com/r/microsoftsoftwareswap it's cheaper there and probably a little safer too.

That's where I got mine.

the thing about G2A is not that they are fishy, its that the place where they get their stuff is fishy.

 

and they have some weird ethics...

Yes you will be able to upgrade to windows 10.

 

You buy it by messaging one of the people who listed keys for sale, be sure to tell them what key you want and what you'll use to pay them (Paypal is recommended), then wait for them to respond, if they tell you to go ahead with payment or something then send the correct amount (using the "send money to friends/family option, not payment so they get the full amount) and send a message to them with the paypal account email so they can confirm you paid them, then they will send you a key within 24 hours or so.

It's not risky to use the friends/family method?

Idk, but that's what they want you to use so paypal doesn't take anything from it in fees...

I will try with the standard method, it's better to pay 2$ more, i don't wanna pay them with friend/family method. Thank you all guys for the answers

I bought one off G2A because I didn't want to wait for the dingleberries on Reddit to message back, it can take days sometimes.  They are getting swamped with key requests so it is understandable
