they’re like G2A with a sale on at the moment, they have steam keys for the new stalker game. i’d like to buy that game as its 30 uk pounds on yuplay but they dont give the keys till launch day…

would this be a big gamble, are they known to be shady or maybe even a scam where theyll be off the internet by feb?

    Besides the difficulties for players, there’s also the fact that key reselling is an excellent method for credit card pickpockets to launder money quickly.

    Someone’s credit card is swiped in the streets, and in the time before it’s reported stolen, the thief buys many copies of expensive games, to be resold on a place like this. The key resellers themselves claim they’re purchased directly, but…I personally have almost no faith in them or their claims.
