Hello, is G2a Legit? 

As legit as paying someone 10 dollars for a 20 dollar iTunes gift card

 

Edit: And just to clarify, you may purchase a legit 20 dollar gift card (or game) for way less than what it's retail value is...  you just don't know how the person obtained the 20 dollar iTunes gift card.

it depends what you mean, Is it legal to buy from there, yes.
is the way that 90% of the games on there are produced (Torrenting) legal, no

Is it legitimate, ermm about as legitimate as buying torrentented games can be

I've bought a good amount of games and even a few psn codes over the years , I've only had one problem which was solved the same day! 

Buy from well known sellers with a good reputation , you can trust them more than others!

not sure where the codes came from though... but they work

FYI you're just getting keys for games from there. The legitimacy of the source of those keys is questionable. Buying a torrented game is simply illegal. G2A is a grey area.

Torrented games da phuc? G2A selling keys not games mate.It seems like someone hasn't use G2A at all.

 

I used G2A multiples time and I never got a fake key at all, but make sure you add G2A protection in your order, so if you got a fake key they will do refund it or exchange it.

Cool thing i found out: You don't have to pay for buyer protection to be protected. It's just like a fast lane. Also, compare the price to Kinguin before you buy.

G2A has it's sellers, it's like an ebay for video games, sellers have ratings and feedback count, that's how it works.

It's very hard to find a scam but if you do it's them giving you a different item.

 

It's safe to use and I bought Black ops 3, fran bow and RWBY from there.

 

Dont waste time with g2a guard either, just make sure the seller has a high rating.

Well they mass buy keys when they're on a heavy sale (ie Black Friday/Cyber Monday)

 

Then they sell them once the games have reached a new stable medium price and sell below that so they still profit from when they bought it as its lowest point. 

 

Example:

 

I buy keys for $9.99 during a summer blowout

(wait several months)  The game is now priced at 39.99

I now sell for 19.99 (wow what a deal right)

 

That's just how SOME of them work. I'm sure someone who knows about torrenting will explain it though.

Buyer protection is like a warranty or insurance.

Like i said earlier, you actually don't have to. Nor do you have to when using Kinguin (although their support is a lot faster).

A lot of people do that with humble keys as well. You can usually find pretty decent prices if you miss a sale.

you have one hell of a twisted way of thinking, please DM me the name of whatever you are taking/smoking/drinking/injecting.

OP: Worst case scenario is that you dont get buyers protection and games license gets revoked on steam (which happened to me once and I got burned for that one)

just a warning, stuff like this happened in the past: https://www.vg247.com/2015/01/26/digital-copies-of-far-cry-4-are-being-deleted-from-uplay/

 

But I've also bought games from there. Hell, I bought the DLC for Skyrim since I didn't want to pay $60 later for a 64bit Skyrim with some texture mods

 

Also, for a more legit site, there is sites like GreenManGaming. Also, heard good things about cdkeys.com but not sure.
