Just pirate it. It would be no different, as there is no way this is legitimate.
By no means am I advocating piracy, but buying this you may as well pirate it.

Looks reliable to me. The shop looks genuine even has a genuine Microsoft mattress leaning up against the shutters

I dabble in buying and selling of virtual goods and let me tell you if the price is too good to be true, it normally is.
Usually these cheap codes are purchased from genuine places or larger more reputable key sites using stolen credit cards and then sold dirt cheap to liquidated the dodgy cards funds.
Often times you have to take eBay feedback with a pinch of salt, don't assume 1000+ feedback means you're safe. These eBay accounts are traded and cultivated for that very reason alone. People grow these accounts for 3-5 years and then once they can do so safely they will hit high volume sales to "cash out" over the space of a couple of months. It usually takes a few months for these dodgy codes to get sussed out depending on where they were purchased from.
I've had it happen to me, purchased a lot of digital keys for a newly released game from someone and a few months later all of the keys got revoked. The price was 20% of the RRP..
Don't be fooled by the "the codes are cheaper in russia!" nonsense. If something is selling at 5% of the RRP there is a reason for that, and it's not the original country of purchase.
Ultimately it comes down to where the codes were purchased from and how they deal with fraudulent purchases. You may be good for a month, you may be good for a year or you may be lucky and the key is never revoked.

Do you really believe these keys are genuine? I guess most of you know they're not, just kidding yourselves. I can assure you that any keys that are emailed to you are not legit, they are created using key generators so every once in a while a genuine key gets created and lasts, the vast majority are trapped by the servers after several months as they fail the authenticity test. They also use volume licenses intended for software developers where each license is good for up to 100 installations. Many eBay software sellers for example are actually based in China, USA, Russia and Italy. They buy dormant eBay accounts and use them to peddle their counterfeit software. eBay turn a blind eye because all they care about is taking 5 to 10% of the sale.
Genuine OEM keys come with a genuine paper license in the form of a physical certificate of authenticity on which the key is displayed and contained within a white cardboard OEM sleeve with a red seal. The packs are printed with a batch number and the words MADE IN GERMANY or Made In Turkey.
You have no idea where the money is going. Most of the eBay sellers are part of criminal networks and your money is funding their wider criminal activities including drugs, terrorism etc. Is that what you want to waste your money on?

They really are not hacked accounts at all, there are plenty of highly rated sellers on ebay (1000+ feedback) selling around the same price, this just happens to be cheapest.
I purchased one, signed in & registered legitimately through Microsoft's website and activated the software just fine. I even have Microsoft support with the product key.

Is it legit though? Also I'm assuming it's a one off fee as I've got 365 and could do with cancelling

Decide yourself if it's legit. Like most alt.facts people believe what they want to believe:
OEM keys. There was a posting earlier today with a similar Ebay seller and full explanation of why so cheap.

So let me ask you, why does the product key register with Microsoft perfectly fine? Why does internet activation work perfectly fine with software downloaded directly from Microsoft? They are not generated using a keygen at all otherwise you would have to install a crack and activate the software offline to bypass the Microsoft server.

I have a feeling that Pro Plus is only available via Volume License Keys.
Not sure why HUKD allows these "deals" to be posted.

Unlike your everyday money including tax which goes towards criminal activities including 'wars', drugs, terrorism-with-a-different-name etc. (And always in these foreign countries, of course, never good ol' Brave Old Boys Blighty, eh?)

These prices are less than OEM prices especially when taking into account ebay fees.
Added to that look at the feedback history of the account selling nothing like this in the past then suddenly seling microsoft keys with
If you require the COA sticker you must contact before purchase, the item could take up to 60 working days to get to you and the cost is an extra £15 on top of the asking price for this product key. However, if you don't require the sticker, we still send you a perfect working code.
Doing this alone makes it suspicious, as coincidentally 60 days by which time the account will be banned and nothing will ever turn up.
