Buy at your own risk. Have heard one too many stories of people getting scammed to consider buying from g2a.

Look up the definition of what a "grey market" is and you'll find your answer.

G2A is the most trusted site and legit site.

 

Kinguin, GreenMan, and others are the ones that have issues.

[GreezyJeezy]

yes its legit and also yes their are scammers on it. just buy the G2A shield its like $1 so if you get a bad key or anything you'll get a refund.

Really? you havent seen all the people who had their game key disabled that they bought on G2A because it was bought with a stolen credit card? or all the ones who the developer disabled because they were illegally redistributed?

 

You need to do some research m8

So if i enter my credit card info into that site, you are saying its possible that they can do the same to me?

[SparkyRain]

Legit enough. All my rigs run on their windows key and no complaints from microsoft activation check yet. And bought cityskylines there. Activated on steam no problem

no

people on that site sometimes sell games that they bought with someone elses stolen credit card

 

the site itself is safe, they wont get your credit card if you buy on the site

its just that a lot of sellers are doing illegal stuff to sell games there and make money

 

if you dont care about your games possibly being bought with someone else's hard earned money, or that your key might get disabled eventually, or taht youre making life harder for game developers, then its fine to buy from G2A

No. Dont believe this Horrorbedtime Storys. There was one Case in which stolen Cards were used to buy Keys (no evidence btw.). Ive spend 1k$ on keys and never had a single Issue. Just use the 1$ Safety and there is zero Risk.

zero risk for you

not for the people who's earned money is being stolen, or the game developers which are losing money

Ditto.

 

Just make sure you know the seller's trustable, and get G2A Shield in the event if you get fucked over.

Wrong again. In fact, they sell even more Games because People buy Games they would´nt have bought over Steam or Origin otherwise.

And this stolen CC´s..please. Just stop. Its a Fairytale.

LOL youre funny

Developers hate people like you

Oh there was one Case of Stolen CC´s.. Wow..never heard of that beforte in my Life. Im sure those Sides are the first ones who ever encountered something like that.

I still dont believe this "stolen" crap. Only because some strangers post some stuff without any evidence.

But hey, you keep trying to fear People, i keep safe Money, ok?

Uh, speak in english please? Your sentence makes no sense...

 

My point is that youre most likely using someone's stolen money or you're ripping off the developers by using G2A

Most people have this thing called "moral standards" but I guess nobody taught you what that is

[DemonicHeart]

one question.. after purchasing a game from g2a, how long does it take to receive the code?
