Reddit, G2A and Kinguin are questionable at best, avoid them.

 

You might be able to get a free windows licence through your school, they might give you a key, if they don't they might be able to get a discounted or free copy of windows through onthehub if your school is eligible. (I got 7, 8 and 8.1 for free off there)

That is literally impossible. it is possible, however, if you don't want top use the disk, to boot with a USB flash drive loaded up with an ISO from Microsoft's website.

Still, don't put too much faith in my buying decisions. xD

In regards to kinguin, it'll cost you around 20-30$. While this a legal gray area, kinguin is very reliable in my experience, especially when you consider their customer protection and seller verification versus g2a.
