Contact the seller,
If the do not handle the situation,
Contact Amazon,
After Contacting Amazon,
Contact Microsoft,
Explain the situation.
They will tell you that you did not buy from an authorized retailer and such forth.
After that they will either give you a key, or tell you your SOL, then pursue the dealer. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number SMN-Productions OS Windows 7 x86/x64, Server 2008r2, Web Server 2008 CPU i7 v2 3930K Steping stone 2 Motherboard ASUS Rampage IV Extreme Memory G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB Graphics Card AMD HD 5770 Monitor(s) Displays Acer 21" and Samsung 20" Keyboard Black Widow Ultimate PSU 1000 Watt Case HAF-X Cooling 4 Fans Hard Drives Patriot Pyro 80GB |

I am really sorry that you have been through this experience.
Can you also please make a report to Microsoft directly.
You can find out information on to reporting procedure here: Protect Yourself from Piracy
The online form would be my first choice.
Also, you can read more on their Piracy microsite here: Protect Yourself from Piracy
Thanks a lot!

Thanks mate he has said he has giving me a full refund, but i won't know for 5 days. He said it's his suppliers fault and Microsoft as well. Just have to wait and see but don't buy off him for a couple of weeks till he gets his new batch in. | My System Specs | | |

Is it a TechNet key? This would be proof of fraud.
More here: Blocked Keys (Was EBAY Keys)
Would be interesting to hear his explanation - seller should be dumped by Amazon unless it's good. | My System Specs | | How do i report a bad seller of microsoft Products problems? All times are GMT -5. The time now is 01:02 AM. | |
