Several points.
1. The quoted prices are high.
2. Even if these WFW packages are true MS OEM product, the legal ramifications
   of MS Licensing are that unless ALL sellers have OEM Distribution Agreements
   with Microsoft, all product becomes illegal, and even brokering those packages,
   without ever even touching, or seeing those packages, subjects all parties to
   the army of MS lawyers, etc., etc., etc.
3. Just don't.
