Goodbye, Z.
you can do everything here ~snip~
No. Anything illegal is not allowed, this would include trafficking of codes obtained via questionable methods.

The forum only disallows the sale of illegal items and does not enforce the T&Cs of other services.
Which however doesn't mean that you can't get negative feedbacks for violating the T&C of other services,
as shown by the example given in OP, MSDN sellers getting negative feedbacks from Vod and others.

No I dont escrow anymore.
Hi,
I got some antivirus software activation codes and would like to sell them here but I don't know if it's legal or not since Vod are saying the MSDN key is not legal, just wanna make sure.

Regards
yes , it is legal . but in my opinion you needed to satisfies the condition that you should sell your btc in bitcoin like things .
otherwise you will be slide to the off- topic by the forum moderator .

Translation: You have to sell the keys for bitcoin otherwise your marketplace thread will be removed as off-topic. You can accept other currencies besides bitcoin though.

you can do everything here but condition here is that you don't scam anyone or any ponzi schemes service .
you can sell or bu individually but you need also escrow for security also .
and you also needs to make deal in bitcoin ( as mentioned in the 2nd last post ) .

Terminated.
Something likes Norton Antivirus, kaspersky, ESET NOD32, McAfee Internet Security, etc....
Should be fine as long as we are not talking about cracked/stolen licenses. Hopefully this answers your question.

This is to be decided on a case-by-case basis. AFAIK in most cases, selling codes of such type only breaks the T&Cs of the service and is not illegal. The forum only disallows the sale of illegal items and does not enforce the T&Cs of other services. Note: Do not sell codes to any kind of potentially malicious software.

What Antivirus software are we talking about? It should be legal.
