There are a number of online sites, including some that are fairly reputable and well-known marketplaces, where one can find gray market keys. You'll have to do your own research from there.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

Am I allowed to say that? It's gray market, not piracy

According to Linus it's equivalent to piracy.

 

Legit OEM Pro key is $150-170. Legit OEM Home is $80. Do you actually need Pro?

In the interest of not gaining a warning point, my post has been edited. Thanks for clarifying.

I dont think it's enough to get you warning. I was commenting on note that grey market is "better" than piracy. It's actually worse than just downloading "modified" version as you are paying for it.

You have 2 choices.

 

1. Buy a Key from Windows Store or other authorized retailer.

2. Take a gamble and by a ~$20 key from reddit/ebay/kinguin/G2A or similar. Dont bitch if your key does not work.

Or don't bother entering a key during setup

Look out for folks who sell MSDN keys. I have a couple of friends who work with MS tell me that they do get customers who are sold MSDN keys but they don't own the MSDN subscription.
