No.
That is not a legitimate, legal purchase. Period.

Windows costs what it costs. If you find it significantly cheaper than any of the major retailers (Amazon/Newegg/Microsoft/etc) it is almost certainly not legit.

It looks too good to be true, but I'm honestly not sure.

They say that they provide you with a copy of Windows which sounds dodgy, almost as if they have created the ISO file for distribution; which is illegal.

I have sent them an email with enquires as to how they manage to sell it for so cheap and expect to hear back in 24 hours.

Just in case anyone is still interested, this is the response I got from them:

"Dear Joe,

Thanks very much for your email.

Our keys are directly from MS via special method.
Yes, the download link is also powered by MS.

I'm curious what this 'special method' is lol.
