Windows 10 from Kinguin?

https://youtu.be/yXTqz3Fd28M

 

So I watched this video by Paul's Hardware about getting Windows 10 for about £/$20 from Kinguin.

I was just wondering if anyone has done this? Has it been successful or have you had problems?

 

I have access to a PayPal Account, should I buy the code from here rather than buying a disk for £65 on Amazon?

I got a key from then in January and have not had any problems. 

My Work in Progress PC http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/522048-xeon-build/ <-- That PC was built but never booted:(

My Work in Progress PC 2.0 https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/540583-xeon-build-20-code-name-xenox (Hopefully this one boots.)

It's been successful, but it's essentially a lottery with 50/50 odds. If you play smart, you can get a legitimate key for that much, but there are just as many people selling used and stolen keys. It's very buyer beware.

Ive never bought a window's key from there, but I have brought many game keys and steam game giftings from them and all of them have worked without a problem

No legal windows. Most of there are stolen volume licence keys. If you want a legal full version buy it from microsoft, if no just pirate it.

I've just found out that buying a code from Amazon is just under £30, perhaps its worth the £10 more to buy from somewhere more trustworthy?

 

Or, is it worth having a CD for £65? If I ever reset my PC, would I have to buy a new code?

If the seller is Amazon itself, I'd take it.

It is sold by Amazon.

Under seller, it says Amazon?

My mistake, it is sold by WINLicense GmbH....doesn't sound much better to me. Amazon's code is £85 for home and £150 for Pro. I'm not spending that much. I was planning on getting a disk from another seller on Amazon for £65-70. The code I found from that other seller is £30 but if its no more safe than Kinguin, I might as well get it for £20 on there since it comes with protection so if it is a dodgey code, you can refund it.

Do you remember which seller you used?
