    You guys should be more careful with the dodgy sponsorships you have.

    This shop looks scammy as hell, it barely has any products (31 games in total) and there is no software section there, they also sell... earphones.

    Come on MMORPG, you can do better than that. If you guys are hurting for money, take my idea I posted a few months ago and do it, you would get a lot more money that way.

    For me it works and I was surprised to see they only have 21 games on sale, and most games are 3 times more expensive than g2a! lol

    https://www.g2a.com/en/pro-evolution-soccer-2019-pes-2019-legend-edition-steam-key-row-i10000169506001

    But on their website it is on "sale from $94.58 to $77.56" so I bet they sell on their website, go to g2a to get a key and then keep the profit.

    Please MMORPG.com, show some dignity and delete this advertisement.

    Rofl so now we have scammer websites paying for advertisements on gaming websites? You do know that selling highly discounted keys for Microsoft products is illegal, as well as advertising for such establishments.

    Let alone all those keys are stolen or counterfeit.

    Is this the new low for MMORPG? Or perhaps the staff is dumb as hell.

    Good luck with your volume license/stolen key. Hope it works out long term for you, most don't. Thanks for supporting and partaking in illegal behaviors, in an open forum as well. You are clearly a pillar to society.

    If a website is sketchy sounding, with a weird name (goodoffer24?), and you check the about section and it has sentences like this

    "Goodoffer24 is an rapid increasing online store which sells software and game product at low prices. And we have brought best shopping experience to millions of customers since online." 

    It probably isn't legit. Honestly G2A as scummy as they are looks better than this.

    Untrue, cannot resell OEM keys. Amazon and Microsoft store are the only 2 vendors available to legally purchase retail keys. That defeats the purpose of OEM.

    I thought Newegg sells them, or is it still only physical OEM?

    That may be true but if they are selling real OEM keys, wether they aquired them legally or not , does not make it a scam....tons of sites sell OEM keys and they usually work....I know many people that use them....

    Yep and I go into cars in the evenings around my house for money, you'd be surprised how many people leave change in their cup holders over night.

    Several posts on Microsoft's site suggest these MS Windows keys are MSDN volume license keys. Other reviewers stated this company either didn't deliver their products or tacked on extra fees. All that adds up to shady. I'm surprised mmorpg.com is running an ad for these people.

    Already reported the activities to the BSA and Microsoft. Crazy the lengths people will go to make a buck these days. Doubt anything will be done, they rarely do, and most of these vendors are in countries that neither org can touch.

    This site is shady. Expect your windows key to be revoked after some time.

    I actually need 22 copies to upgrade my client's business before the end of the year. Tempting, but, um.

    These places get away with this because they mostly do not do enough volume to be worth the trouble to track them down and take action.

    So take a chance if you want, it is never worth saving a few bucks to me to "maybe" not have issues later.

    Majority of these places selling OEM keys are NOT legit. Why they have strange names. One gets shut down, they open 2 others and keep selling.

    Like others...i sometimes wonder at the things this site runs as sponsored...gonna be offering us Generic Viagra with games next time ???

    Your post is more scammy than they are. There is a small percentage of reviews where people have had issues. They have a 9.7/10 review on trust pilot, other sites also give them a good rating. Does MS want you to buy those keys? I'm sure they don't, but the if there are a lot of people having problems with their keys they are being silent. I'm thinking I'll take the risk.

    Late bird to the comments section, well let this post be buried below everyone elses, but anyway:

    (Using Windows 10 Pro as example)
    Buying keys from non microsoft certified sources, especially for a price this far below MSRP (which is ~200usd), means they are keys bulk purchased in country with lower sales price, MOST COMMONLY WITH STOLEN CREDIT CARDS. Even if keys were legitimately purchased in countries with lower sales price, in bulk, it would not be possible to sell them for much less than ~100usd.

    Therefore, BUYER BEWARE: There is a very good chance your puchase will initially work, but in most cases will stop working with no warning.
    Also buying from sources like this is what makes credit card fraud profitable, so keep this in mind.

    Windows 10 pro for $11.38 bucks. Here, i'll give you a better offer.

    - Save those $11.38 and go Linux! Gaming on Linux has never been easier with Proton for Steam games, and Lutris for non Steam games. I've dipped my toes for years on it but always went back to Windows for gaming. Not anymore, not ever again.

    After they get taken down, their next site will be goodoffer25.
