Be careful buying Windows licenses from places like Amazon, eBay, strange websites, and a certain unnamed subreddit.

Those licenses are often academic or MSDN keys that are sold for profit. Once Microsoft gets wind of it, the user gets blacklisted, and all the keys they sold get deactivated. Then your copy of Windows does a license check, and deactivates on you.
