I am a little confused by the statement. So, he told you it was legal to sell them?

Yeah a guy I have bought scrap computers off of in the past asked me if I was selling the stickers.....I told him I thought it was illegal but he said it was ok......Anyways sorry for all the fuss you asked a legitimate question and I was wondering the same but just didn't have time to fool with it

Its cool. I am not real worried over it. I have searched for the last hour or so, and the only sources that say it is illegal is people's opinions. People even quoted things from Microsoft themselves, and Microsoft only said that you should becareful on who you buy them from, as most people do sell them in an illegal way.

So, who knows.

The person that knows is the expert on our forum, Drozenski And you've also seen him explain it.

George i am a CMGP ( Certified Microsoft Gold Partner ) i have had to read entire books on this crap. You can not sell a COA key with out selling the entire computer with it. Period. No matter how "not that illegal" you think it is, it is still Illegal.
