Isn't their business model buy steam keys at a lower cost region then resell it at higher cost region?

How is that a scam?

Yep. I pirate single player games and buy multiplayer ones half off on grey market sites.

Somebody out there is losing money when you use G2A. Think before you buy.

>implying fearmongering isn't very effective
If you were G2As competition, you would do the same. They undercut you at every interval because many of the resellers purchase their keys in regions where the price is lower, but as an ''official'' reseller you can't really do this without the developer in question getting pissed at you.

The only person losing money is you, considering you pay real life MONEY for a game key. Although cheap, you still lose money.

Do you guys buy off people that are less than 98% trusted or something?
>>
>>337100780
same, never had as issue

i'm not paying 80usd through steam, fuck that
that's like 100aud for a fucking digital copy
>>
I've only ever bought Dark Souls 2 off it.

I've had a few people I know have problems with them when buying new games though, so I'd rather not use that trade site from now on.
>>
>>337100780
Site is not moron-proof, that's the problem. It's most likely people buying from distrusted sellers or clearly region locked keys because they're cheap.
>>
I remember when bots spam links on that shitty website in twitch chats. Seems legit.
>>
>>337100621
A retail store in Russia selling grey market goods across the border.
