So i was happy with the seller and now i am ordering more larger quanities. The key is that you have to spend time looking through all the pages, which can be very tiring but you never know you may find a seller that does do what he is supposed to do and that is sell you what you want. It also helps to read their feedback which is similar to ebay's feedback system, Positive, Neutral and Negative. And if you dont want to risk a large amount of money, you can start of with somethind small. This site supports paying options such as Paypal which i prefer to use.

So take your time and it maybe worth buying on Dhgate.

Many thanks.

You may also get lucky and have some of the pirated keys work, then you'll think it's genuine. I had some of my XP COA's verified by microsoft, but they are still fakes as they are volume licenses, and once microsoft blacklists the working keys, they'll start telling you that they are not indeed genuine.

Also, when it comes to feedback, you can't go by that either. It's possible that people who bought from them thought they got real copies, then left positive feedback before realising that they are fakes.
wholesale-outlets.com/ is another website that DHGate has now, and it's supposed to be 'trusted' sellers, so sellers with high feedback, but they sell fakes there too.

I really suggest looking into microsoft.com/howtotell and search google for other ways to verify you actually have real copies. There are a lot of really well done fakes coming out of china. These people shouldn't be supported.
