How satisfied are you with this reply? Thanks for your feedback, it helps us improve the site. Hi Devun. Never buy Microsoft software through anyone but Microsoft or a major retailer that backs their purchases.
Any discount below retail price is suspect. You probably bought a bad key. I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and let us know how it goes. I will keep working with you until it's resolved. Shenan Stanley. It may well work, but what you likely purchased was a stolen product key various easy way to do this and you paid someone money for said stolen product. Igor Leyko Independent Advisor. Hi, If you buy an OEM key, you became illegal user.
OEM software can be sold only in packets with assembler's agreement on the envelope. Any other sells are for duping. In reply to Igor Leyko's post on July 2, Good thing I bought the protection Hopefully can get my money back. This site in other languages x. But, the fact that you have to pay extra to ensure your purchase is protected makes the whole business model even shadier. You would think that you would be protected regardless…. Ubisoft initially revoked access to those games from the users who got scammed with stolen codes.
However, they reversed course and allowed those users to keep their codes. In other cases, though, it appears as if sellers get their keys through sales or promotions and turn around and sell them on the marketplace.
So, some sellers are buying game keys in bulk when they go on sale, then hording them until the sale ends, and then they turn around and sell them for more than they purchased them for on Kinguin. But, the problem is that you never really know where your key is coming from. Because, while there are instances where the keys may be more legit like if a seller is simply unloading some free keys they picked up through a promotion , unfortunately there are other instances where you could be buying from a seller who obtained their key in a fraudulent manner.
I have purchased a copy of Windows 10 Pro through them to test it out. Although, at first, the key was denied and I did have to spend some time chatting with support in order to get it working.
But, in my experience, their support was actually very helpful and they were able to get the code verified with Microsoft for me and it has been working ever since. Now, to be clear, I often build PCs for others especially for the winners of our PC giveaway contest , and I would never buy a Windows key from Kinguin to put on a computer that I was building for someone else. And, so far I have had no problems. So, whether or not you should buy from Kinguin.
If I could guarantee that I could get codes from people who are just unloading free codes they got through promotions, then that would be one thing.
There are, however, caveats to those low prices. Namely that Kinguin has had a shady business model and that purchasing products through them is unethical when you consider where the codes you are purchasing could be coming from.
So, you can buy from them. But just be aware of the potential pitfalls that could arise if you choose to do so. Kinguin is NOT a legitimate site. I purchased an Office key in February of The key did not work. Microsoft identified it as having already been used. What I will say is that I was able to reach someone through the chat, who made it work using the telephone activation schema, but it was clearly not a reputable activation — they must have a tool to generate fake phone activations codes — as the key was identified by Microsoft as used.
I wanted to get a refund for my Purchase because it didnt work. I live in HK went to their office — there is no body working there seems like a scam.
