Honest Opinion Please!

Hi!

I'm building a computer from second hand parts.

I don't have much money but after saying that, I don't want to go down the
illegal software channel.

eBay is full of XP software, like this:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-WINDOWS-XP-PROFESSIONAL-PRO-SP2-FREE-BONUS-CD_W0QQitemZ7246005923QQcategoryZ41888QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Am I taking a risk? Price is good (I've seen some even cheaper!) and the guy
appears to have good feedback.... I just can't afford to buy a copy at my
local store at the moment.

Are ofers like this too good to be true?

Any advice before I take the plunge would be appreciated!

Many thanks,


Debi :-)
