Its solid straight conversion porn.

never had a problem. don't be stupid.

bought fallout 4 from a trusted distributor, steam took it away today because it turns out he never paid for it on his end. other than that, it's been good to me, but be careful and use the safeguards they put in place. i'm going to their support center soon about it.

east european kikes.
you know what to do.
>>
>>331350892
Bought about 30 games for steam there, not a single problem yet
>>
Its good but still pricey compared to russian/chinese key sellers
>>
Pretty good, actually. Cheap games.

What I don't understand is why they haven't been shut down. Isn't it eating into profits?
>>
>>331352563
Because they use stolen credit cards to buy keys or just straight up steal keys
>>
>>331352563
i think a lot of the games being sold were already bought if i'm not mistaken, so ultimately if you buy a game, someone paid for it already. i might be wrong tho.
>>
>>331350892
I use Kinguin as it seems slightly less dodgy than G2A tbqfh. It's useful for selling spare keys from Humble shit.
>>
some sort of grey market.
I suppose the equivalent of buying a used game? since your buying somebody else key
Doesnt seem to help developers, so why not just pirate?
>>
It's legit, op. Also check out nuveem. Games retail for less in poorer countries, so they buy games (keys), sometimes physical sometimes not, and sell them. If there's no region lock then there's no downside.
>>
>>331350892
>2 dollars deposited to your bank account
>>
>>331353227
Because you get the generally better service that comes with Steam? Plus multiplayer.
>>
>>331350892
As long as you pay for the g2a shield and you buy from g2a themselves or high-rep sellers you should be fine pham
>>
>>331353227
Nah, someone will have paid for it. It's copies ripped from retail disks or 3rd world sellers/distributors (or just some companies who are willing to use market segmentation to get shit sold for cheap).
>>
Kinguin is better.

G2A also sells on Kinguin but Kinguin offer things like money back guarantees if something goes wrong.
>>
>>331353227
Oh sorry didn't know pirate copies could do online.
>>
I've bought maybe around 15 games from them, they're pretty good.

Only problem I've had was with TESO, I was able to play for about 2 weeks before zenimax sent me an email saying my key was deemed stolen and I'd have to buy another key to continue playing. So I sent a screenshot of the email I got to g2a customer service and they gave me a full refund.

>or just straight up steal keys

I live in eastern europe myself and this one time I saw this band of guys just assault a Steam van full of keys

They blocked the way of the Steam vault truck and forced it off the road, they all had AKs and after beating the security men unconcious they started unloading the keys really fast

By the time I tried to dial the police they were already rolling away, their trunk fully packed with keys and laughing out loud, eurobeat coming from their radio, as the car passed by me one of the guys just threw a bunch of keys at me

I grabbed some but they were all for Theres poop in my soup

Fucking G2A guys I swear the next time I see them doing armed key-robbery I'll not hesitate
>>
kinguin is better anyway

>rewards program
>keys arent stolen
>support
>better protection

>>331354341
>Implying you can just steal shit from stores and sell the keys
Retard.
>>
>>331354486

Bring me some news articles of the latest game-store robberies.

Or you think they operate by having a gigantic network of smalltimes pickpocket like people who steal 1-2 games a day, to add up together the thousands they have?

ITS GREY MARKET
ITS A SIMPLE CONCEPT
APPLIED DIGITALLY

Considering they let ANYONE sell their keys there - ofcourse you'll have a few bought with stolen cards and even stolen from shops, but when /v/ spergs out like the uneducated children they it fucking hurts to read all this dumb shit.
>>
>>331350892
GEEEEE
TWOOOOO
AYYYYY

DOT COM
>>
>>331354451

protip: they are 90% all owned by the same parent company, they just run rival sites against themselves, g2a, g2p, kinguin - all the same
>>
I used it once and it was fine.
I wouldn't use it a lot though.
>>
its solid as a rock
cheap as duck too
>>
>>331355018
THE BEST VIDEO GAME STORE EVURRRRRRR
>>
Just buy keys from trusted sellers.
No idea how G2A does it but Kinguin has a rating system.
>>
It's the most innovative store I've ever used.
>>
bought a bunch of games long ago and a few weeks later Valve put my Steam account on ice because like half of the games were stolen

if you really want to, do at your own risk but I don't feel like it anymore because the risk is not worth since Steam sale is also cheap enough and I don't have to deal with this jewish bullshit
>>
>>331354845
I believe it.
>>
>>331354845
Are you suggesting some grand corporate conspiracy?
>>
>>331357937

Nothing grand about it, its a common trick.

I mean just look at kinguin and g2play, they arent even trying there
