I'm getting a NUC and I do want to install Windows 10 Pro. Where is the best place to purchase keys at a reasonable price. I don't really trust the scammers on eBay as I was burnt on an Office 365 account from them.

I found this place for $40 but not sure if they are legit?

Not sure if I can post a link but here it is link
 
No. They are just charging more to make it look genuine or better. It's actually a sales technique that works.

You're going to pay around $120 for a genuine key. There is no such thing as a magic deal with Windows licensing.

I can actually get official key from Microsoft site for $24 on Friends and Family portal but that for Home only
 
So do folks still run these bootleg keys without issues for year(s) without issue??
 
If its not from Microsoft.com and delivered by email, it falls under the same gray market segment as every other one. A legit retail Windows 10 license will come with a COA mailed to you.

They aren't bootleg per say. They are generally MSDN keys or recycled keys from the EU where its legal to resell a license. I use 2-3 personally and have never had an issue with any of them. I also have a full retail license, boxed, directly from Microsoft, and the experience is identical.
