The way I understand they are 'used' keys from broken PCs. Trust me, if they were not legal Ebay would never allow selling them.

lol, are you joking? It's not legal to sell stolen property on any market place, yet thousands of stolen items are sold on ebay each and every single day. The same goes for pirated movies and tv shows to cracked game consoles filled with priated games to "reproduction copies" of classic, rare video games. The legality of copyright has never been something eBay has dabbled much in in terms of whether or not they allow items to be sold on their site, and there's no reason to think they suddenly started to lay the hammer down on Windows 10 licenses.

Even when previously buying an os for other computers I've had, they've  always thrown me used keys from previous computers. Never had a problem with installing. Yeah, I've had to call Microsoft on an occassion or two they've always worked.
