    Just found this listing, very very dodgy.

    Forget about the second link,the seller had issues in the past selling illegal soft judging by his feedback,contact the first seller and ask the person if you can see the items in person.

    The second link is very similar to the first one, same picture, same free p&p etc

    Even if you see the items you probably wont be able to tell if they are fake copys and the only way to tell would be when activating it and making sure but then could be just giving out one legit license with each of them. With such low feedback I would avoid tbh.

    €22 from the Microsoft shop. If that's where he got them, it wouldn't be cheap at all.

    Personally though, I'd steer clear.

    By "Microsoft shop" I meant the shop for MS employees in their offices. ;)

    Sorry for the confusion.
