Legality, EU Regulations & Guarantees
Is it legal to buy and sell these licenses?
Yes. At La Tienda de las Licencias, we operate strictly under current European legislation regarding the resale of software.
The legal basis is the landmark Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) Judgment (Case C-128/11), which ruled that a software author (such as Microsoft) cannot oppose the resale of its used or surplus licenses, provided they were originally acquired legally within the EU.
The Principle of "Exhaustion of Rights": Once the manufacturer sells the software for the first time, they lose the right to control subsequent sales. The software is considered a tangible asset (like a book or a car) and its resale is 100% lawful.
🛡️ Your Guarantees When Buying Here
Unlike "grey market" key sites with no fiscal traceability, we are a registered company offering real guarantees for consumers and professionals in Europe.
- ✔ Invoice with VAT Breakdown: You will receive an official invoice. Freelancers and companies can deduct the expense and VAT without issues.
- ✔ Official Activation: The key is validated directly on the manufacturer's servers (Microsoft, etc.). We do not use "cracks" or third-party activators.
- ✔ Replacement Warranty: If a key ever gives an activation error, our support team reviews it and sends you a new one instantly at no cost.
📦 Why are they so cheap? The "Volume" Secret
We do not sell defective products. We sell Corporate Surplus.
Our licenses primarily come from Volume Licensing channels and stock liquidations from large European corporations.
🏢 Enterprise Quality:
Being corporate-origin licenses (Volume), they are extremely stable and allow for easier management compared to basic OEM versions.
💰 Cost Savings:
By purchasing batches of thousands of units that companies no longer need, we secure prices up to 80% below retail PVP and pass those savings on to you.
🔄 Perpetual:
These are not subscriptions. You pay once, and the software is yours forever, with the right to all official security updates.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use them for an audit?
Yes. Your purchase invoice acts as a legitimate title of acquisition. It is the documentary proof you need to present to demonstrate that your software is original and was purchased from a legal vendor.
Will I receive updates?
Absolutely. Your operating system or office suite will function exactly the same as if you had paid full price at the official store. You will receive security patches and performance improvements directly from the manufacturer.
What happens if I format my PC?
Our licenses are linked to your hardware (motherboard) or user account, depending on the product. In most cases, you will be able to reinstall the software on the same device as many times as you need.
