Buying win 10 key from G2A or reddit

Roboslash1

The title.

 

Are these safe, and will the keys be deactivated? I don't want keys that are illegally obtained or fake, but they have to be relatively cheap.

 

If these two aren't good options, what other websites/marketplaces can I consider?

 

Thanks a lot. Any feedback will be appreciated.

Don't buy from G2A! Ever... ever... ever


I don't know about reddit.

That department seems like a Grey market aswell.
Buying keys in a cheaper country to sell them elsewhere.

 

I'd just pay the full price, its just a one time deal ;)

tbh we all know g2a has super cheap prices because the keys are obtained in a not-so-legal way.

in my opinion buying a key that was bought using stolen credit cards or shit like that is the same as using a pirate copy...

Don't. Do not. These keys are probably obtained illegally. Just go to Amazon and get Windows 10 Home OEM CD

Yeah, I actually saw that video. Thats why I was wondering if it was worth it. But I guess not.

I've bought BF3 from them, thats the only thing. I still regret it.
If I knew if my key was a stolen one I'd pay EA the full price, sadly enough... we'll never know.

Kinguin is the same Grey Market as G2A man. Not paying the full price is the same as piracy man.

Reddit PC keys is kinda the same.
Its buying a key in a cheaper country to then sell it for more (still lower than the normal key). This is reselling private keys that aren't ment for reselling.

Just fucking pirate it if you don't want to pay the $90+ that a Windows license costs from a legitimate retailer.

There many sites out there, but most of them will have a backstory.

Buying cheaper isn't a 'legal' option.

It will prob. always be legally 'illigal'.

Yeah, I get what you mean. I live in norway and the prices for windows 10 pro is around 2000kr, which is around 240 usd. And the norwegian krone is really weak right now. So I hope you guys understand where my thoughts of buying from other websites are coming from.
