Does this still happen?
I bought my Win10 Pro key from a grey market site for like $10, so I figure it's likely an illegally sold volume license copy. Yeah, I totally acknowledge that it could get voided, but I know several other people who have bought their Windows key from these types of sites, and none have ever had a problem.

I purchased it, Microsoft checked it, while knowing my IP address, and decided it was good to go. The fault is theirs: if they don't want volume keys to work outside some markets, add some limitation like geolocalization.
