Office is going for like $31...

These kinds of deals have been around for yonks. Amazon is replete with them. All you get is the code, sometimes in an email(

). You still have to download the iso from Microsoft.
I think they're the codes from discarded pcs. I think.

Since i already have Win 10 Pro, and use LibreOffice, it's not for me, otherwise I may have been tempted...

Is this legit?

You never know. In the worst case, you can end up with a developer key, which gets deactivated by Microsoft, or, worse, those are keys bought with stolen credit cards.

Asking if they are legit somehow equals asking if a Rolex for $50 is legit. If the price is that low, it can't be legit, really. Personally, i'd rather buy a cheap Win 7 or 8 Pro key on a legit site, and activate Windows 10 with it.

Well, they are selling it for a fraction of the price that Microsoft sells in bulk to its ODM partners, so I'm not entirely convinced either.

Even cheaper on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/INSTANT-WINDOW ... ctupt=true Not sure if it's legit, though.

Common sense says no.

Where can a person buy a legit copy online?

I knew a German site, but, unfortunately, they had to close down, because they were hacked...

Anyway, most computer tech dealers should have keys in store. Not for $14 though...

Why would those linked above be legit? (Amazon)

If they weren't then Amazon would be liable, right? It's not like Amazon is some shady "dot com" business

Besides, I bought one Windows 10 Pro code for my brother, and so far so good.

There are enough semi-legal/illegal offerings on Amazon, though. Again, if the price is too low, then... *Opens coat with "Rolex" watches in it*
