    If I'm looking to get about 15 copies of Office 2007 whats the best way of doing it?

    Can anyone point me to a Microsoft volume licensing page?

    What's anyones opinions on buying individual copies off of ebay? The ones I've seen are about 80 quid each. Presume they would genuine if bought from reliable sellers.

    Most of the €80 versions on Ebay are under academic licenses.
    These would not license you for business use.

    If your company are in the IT or software dev business they may be eligible for a MS partner deal which provide MS Office and other MS software for a lower annual cost. (Microsoft Action Pack or MS Action Pack Development and Design)

    If you are buying for a school you can buy much cheaper Volume Office licenses by contacting a good authorised distributer (eg. www.bss-ltd.com) and providing your school number to buy under the NCTE volume license deal.

    I guess though that you are just buying as part of a standard business so the likes of https://partner.microsoft.com/Ireland/40055750 or an account manager at Dell / HP can sell you a standard volume license.

    There is the option of buying volume licenses from liquidated companies as done by http://www.discount-licensing.com/ which involves sending transfer documentation to Microsoft, Microsoft hate it and think of it as exploiting a loophole, but it's above board.
