Just browsing ebay ,i see people selling copies of MS office 2010. I'm guessing that these are people who have access to product keys. They sell you a product key and send you a link to download a trial version which is then legitimised using the product key.
Presumably the sellers have software/hardware businesses which allow then to buy and vend product keys?
This sounds a bit ify.
Why would anyone go into a store and buy a full product when it can be had cheaper?
What is the most cost effective way of obtaining office 2010?
Tnx

Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

These could be keys that were given to students (such as software for students) that are now being utilised for extra profit0

Possibly buying keys generated by a program. It may install and work for a bit and then fail.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0

I bought Office 2010 from Software4Students but it was quite a long time ago and I can't remember for sure, but it's possible that the licence allows installation on more than one Windows computer. Certainly my current Office 365 (now 2016) does, as well as installation on unlimited other devices.0
