Could you please point me where to buy it?


Stacksocial has been doing Office promos for years. They're inexpensive, forever licenses but I'd guess they aren't transferable. I've bought a dozen or two.

Techspot has deals on Office 2024. https://www.techspot.com/news/96637-microsoft-office-lifetim...


Stacksocial looks like one of those many dodgy sites selling licenses of questionable origin

How can you be sure they are bona fide Microsoft licenses?


Stacksocial originated that style of selling discounted licenses I think. Been using them for years also


That doesn't answer my question

I'll go out on a limb and just claim they're grey market. Someone can prove me wrong

This seems fairly low effort. I posted stacksocial because they've earned trust and are utilized for fundraising by a number of well known tech sites. I also have my own years of experience with them.

If you have years of different experience with stacksocial, please share that.

Not legitimate in the slightest. If I contacted Microsoft they'd confirm them as an authorised reseller?

I'm not interested in your anecdote when the topic was whether they are bona fide licenses from Microsoft (pretty low effort to not stay on topic I must say)


Yeah, fair enough, I think they probably are grey market


Wasn't aware of these sort of deals.. would love something like this for the Adobe suite.


The ultra cheap ones are grey market. Someone reselling something they are technically not supposed to.


I'm familiar with greymaket sellers but these aren't them. Stacksocial brokers software deals as fundraisers for major websites. They've been around a long time.


Stacksocial link is returning a 500 error.



It's available through Costco. I'm sure Amazon and other similar retailers have it as well. 2024 Version.


Woot has licenses for sale every so often. About $30 for the 2021 version the last time I noticed.
