"NerdUsed" knows they couldn't get away with it as an Amazon Marketplace Reseller.
NerdUsed is finding install keys through any means possible (MSDN user development license banks, corporate, government, or educational codes, etc.). The deals are limited-time deals and they move on to another marketplace site for a different promo. Often, the deals suddenly end when Microsoft determines complementary for-development codes origining from a legal MSDN account user are exhaused or misused. There are many different categories of freely-provided or minimum-fee install codes that are provided throughout the world and amongst many different environments (students, corporates, developers, non-profits, etc.).
Their mailbox is in the U.K. but there is no actual office there. From their actual sites that they directly sell through, we know that English is not their language (using translators), so it's almost certain that they're operating out of a non-English speaking country. They likely do not reside in the U.K. Complaints and re-issuing of declined codes is mostly done through their Telegram account for legal and privacy purposes.
There is no difference between a $2 and a $50 office install code from these install code providers. They are all the same. It's interesting how people feel it's more "authentic" when they pay more money for one. Therefore this is not a "good deal" compared to other gray-market licenses - and this is definitely NOT equivalent to a $300-$600 Microsoft (or other) software license purchased from almost any U.S. store (except Craigslist and marketplace hubs).
Regarding your financial and personal privacy, you're better off purchasing by cash, PayPal, Virtual Credit Card with limits, or from a site that does NOT remit your personal contact (or credit card) details to the install code provider.
"It installed" does not equal it's a "legitimate software license", it's "for life", and it's a "consumer retail license".
Groupon is not the install-code provider. Groupon will take their 7-15% commission, hold the money for at least 30 days (past the credit card charge back period) then send the remaining to NerdUsed's foreign bank. Groupon is not held liable for the future failure of any product in its Marketplace site. Groupon is not responsible for the authenticity or claims made by its product/service resellers.
Microsoft is not responsible for verifying the authenticity of each code install, just as GM does not verify that each Escalade driver is the actual owner. Microsoft should sue Marketplace sites? They can't. Craigslist can't be sued for having imitation products posted on their site. Also, all these install-code resellers are internationally located in non-western countries. At best, they have a post office box and a Telegram account.
Microsoft software is sold as a license to use, not as a physical product disc. Successful install activation is not software license approval. There is no immediate check to verify that it's being installed on a computer owned by a specific company, college, charity, software developer, etc. However, when their status changes, or other flags come up in the future, license codes can be deactivated - easy to do thanks to ongoing internet verifications. It may work for a week, or 10 years. The Marketplace Hub offers no additional credibility as to the life of the product.
Therefore, buying an international app install code from Groupon or StackSocial offers no additional quality than buying it from the luckyapps site in Kazakstan. Paying $50 gives you nothing more than paying $5. For all we know, NerdUsed may be located in Kazakstan.

Groupon human assistants not replying. Probably won't trust this again.
