Buy Genuine Microsoft Used Software at SoftwareKey.lk – Save Big on Licensed Software

At SoftwareKey.lk, we offer a wide range of genuine Microsoft software – both current and older versions – at significantly lower prices as pre-owned licenses. Our used software provides the same features and functions as new products, but at a fraction of the cost. All our licenses are legally compliant, thoroughly tested, and can be activated and used on a single device without any limitations.

Why Choose Used Microsoft Software from SoftwareKey.lk?

SoftwareKey.lk makes premium Microsoft software affordable and accessible. Many of the products we offer, especially professional or enterprise editions, are not available to individual users as single licenses in the retail market. These licenses typically come bundled in large volume packages for corporate clients. By offering them as pre-owned single licenses, we give individuals, small businesses, and freelancers the opportunity to purchase them legally and cost-effectively.

Additionally, some older versions of Microsoft software are no longer available through official channels. We provide these discontinued editions so you can continue using the programs you’re familiar with — without the need to upgrade your hardware or learn new systems.

Is Buying Used Microsoft Software Legal?

Yes, it is 100% legal to buy and sell used Microsoft software licenses within Sri Lanka and the European Economic Area. The resale of used software has been explicitly confirmed and protected by several court decisions in Europe, including:

  • German Federal Court of Justice (BGH) – 6 July 2000 (Case No. I ZR 244/97)

  • European Court of Justice (ECJ) – 3 July 2012

These rulings established the principle of exhaustion, meaning that once Microsoft sells a software license, they no longer control how it is resold. You can legally purchase and use a pre-owned license as long as it was lawfully acquired and the previous user has uninstalled and stopped using it.

This applies to:

  • Physical licenses (DVD, CD)

  • Digital licenses (downloads with product keys)

  • Single-user and split volume licenses

SoftwareKey.lk strictly follows all legal requirements to ensure every license we offer is valid, safe, and compliant.

Where Do Our Used Software Licenses Come From?

Our used Microsoft software licenses are sourced from:

  • Corporate surplus: When companies downsize or restructure, they often sell excess software licenses.

  • System upgrades: Many businesses replace older software versions during IT upgrades, leaving their older licenses unused but fully functional.

  • Insolvent companies: Licenses from businesses that have closed or gone bankrupt.

  • Volume license splits: Unused licenses from bulk corporate purchases, divided and resold individually.

All licenses are thoroughly checked, deactivated by the previous owner, and legally transferred to ensure you’re the only active user.

What Does “Used Software” Really Mean?

Unlike physical goods, software doesn’t deteriorate. The term “used software” simply means that the license was previously owned by another customer but is now legally transferred to a new buyer. Functionality, security, and usability remain exactly the same.

Whether the software was previously installed or never activated, it is treated as pre-owned once resold — without any reduction in performance or feature set.
