I wonder if it will work to resell it, isn't it linked to the hotmail address.

MS Office 2013 Professional Plus for $9.95!

Honestly, that's what worries me more than anything. Microsoft generally isn't too brutal when you take advantage of typo's/price mistakes, but when it comes to reselling niche pricing items (ex: Technet) they come down hard.
Those resellers are pretty bold. There is a tax liability associated with this deal. All it would take is for MS and the employer whose deal was abused to rat them out.

I wouldn't if I were you. They can kill the key if they want to

Game Over?
I just pay $200 for a copy of 2010 home and business.
We are sorry, but we are unable to complete your request.
The following problem(s) exist:
Please contact your benefit administrator to learn if you are eligible and to retrieve your program code.
That's what it tells me, perhaps it's because I'm not in US.

hmmm how do I know which version (64 or 32 bit) the automatic setup installed?
Awesome, thanks.
Don't know about the downloaded version, but for retail Office it defaults to 32bit. You have to manually run the install in the x64 folder to install the 64 bit version.
I tried to click on the purchase link in my email and it says purchased. Maybe we gotta wait?

This is what I did to download both 32-bit and 64-bit, take the download URL they give you on your receipt and change the 32 prefix to 64 so
Setup.x86.en-US_ProPlusRetail_ABCDF_etc.exe
to
Setup.x64.en-US_ProPlusRetail_ABCDF_etc.exe
just copy the url and change x86 to x64 and u can download either one.

My friend had the same problem he had to create a new hotmail account to get it to work, he enter the wrong expiration date and got this exact same message.
Too many orders, auto triggered a halt.
Well it was worth a shot I guess. Thanks for the tip but my CC was spot on. Not really worth the effort so I'll just stick with 2003.

I downloaded the 60-day trial .img file, burnt to a DVD, installed and activated with the key from this deal. Then I made an .iso file from the DVD.

Anyone actually get this installed and activated? I keep downloading "preview" versions and it won't take my keys.

Got my key, thanks!
For the record, the last time this happened and was posted to [H] (Office 2010) I got in and as far as I know they never yanked my key.

Trial wouldn't let me activate.
Hmmmmm that's wierd, I did dig around for a 'direct link' but when what I downloaded still asked me to activate by signing in to an email address or activate with a product key
Mine never asked me or even told me when my trial was over. I think mine was broken or something. But hey, now I got a legal one.

Confirmed hotmail.com works, even created a new hotmail.com email and that worked. Got a copy for my wife and I. I also have several friends who've got copies.
WIN!

I didn't mean myself, I was saying I think it's bound to the Hotmail account that bought it. So those ebay sellers are selling worthless keys.
