OEMs and businesses are allowed to buy keys in bulk, and sometimes resell spare ones they don't need. (Or, worse, buy them in bulk with the direct intention of reselling them.)
I bought a couple of Windows 10 keys a few years ago, and they only worked for a few months before Microsoft blocked them. And fair enough, I suppose.
It's worth noting that if you have a valid key for Windows 7, 8, or 10 that you are not using, it will be accepted in Windows 11.
