I live in argentina, and our currency is bases on pesos (1 Dollar = 20.40 Pesos) <-- Pls dont laugh its serious XDDD Well theres a website called MercadoLibre that is like ebay or a New/Used E-Shop were people can sell what they want... exept ilegal things....\ But, im searhing for a windows 10 PRO KEY or idk and i found a Legit Windows 10 pro key for 450 pesos (20 dollars) wich seems very suspicios to me, i know that they sell keys on g2a or kinguin.com but i reaaly dont understand why in microsoft website they are selling them for 5500 pesos... Can someone explain me? ik that theres something about retail keys or manufacturers keys or idk what. Thx!
I’m not familiar with your platform, but there’s a site called kinguin that offers Win 10 for 20. The concept is companies obtain licenses they don’t need or use by purchasing equipment, then selling the software online at a lower price because it came bundled with the gear.

They function most of the time. They're typically bulk keys, which means they occasionally fail. A reliable seller will simply provide another key if yours doesn't work. Remember this isn't their original purpose for Windows, so any concerns about the system should be taken seriously.
A few keys priced under $80 are considered grey market keys. Claiming a software violation is misleading; only items obtained through theft qualify as illegal. Pirated or cracked products bought with stolen cards are the main concern. Most keys under $80 follow Microsoft’s terms of service, but reselling them breaches those rules. G2A appears to be an added clause in their own TOS, blocking all MS key transactions on the platform—so you won’t find any genuine MS keys there. This suggests they require verified retailer proof, which explains why no legitimate MS keys appear. Large companies using OEMs wouldn’t risk losing retailer privileges by reselling such keys. You can review both Kinguin’s TOS (which allows selling non-compliant items) and the MS OEM key TOS (restricting resale to full systems only). They aren’t illegal, but they violate both Microsoft and eBay’s policies.
The only voices claiming to be in the grey market come from YouTube commentators who often lack a clear grasp of their own situation. I assure you you can purchase nearly any key, and even Microsoft won’t be able to confirm its origin. Regarding TOS, they’re mostly irrelevant and not legally enforceable until proven in court, which would only apply within a specific jurisdiction—not globally. Ultimately, it doesn’t really matter since it doesn’t affect the end user beyond avoiding unnecessary expenses.
