Game buying from G2A

[Fahrenheit01]

So I want to buy Battlefield 1, but i don't feel like giving 60€ for it so I was wondering if G2A is a reliable site. Is that legit or?

never had any issues with them

g2a, kinguin, humble etc are ok

in case the key got "stolen" or someone got it with fake/stolen credit card etc they revoke the key, in case you paid the 90cents premium for the "buy-shield" you´ll receive another key

 

enderman is right too somehow its a gray market, they buy cheap keys from other countrys and sell them later

example was evolve, got it on steam for 35-ish bucks at release and my mate got it from some site for 15bucks from brasil

So it's ok, but sometimes can be problems? Would there be problems with BF1?

it shouldnt, just to be sure select the "guard/shield"-thingy for 90cents to get a refund or another key

Will the Battlefield 1 premium pass become available once the game comes out?

Hello, 

Hard to confirm it for sure as it will be provided by external sellers, but as I seen in past such offer always occurred.

The problem with grey-market sellers like G2A and kinguin are not only the lack of support if a key goes wrong unless you pay an extra fee, then you have extra fees for using paypal unless you trust them with your credit card info.

 

In the end I've seen Kingun/G2A/etc end up more expensive than steam and other official retailers after all the shield/paypal fees. (Which is actually against the Paypal TOS)

 

I personally use IsThereAnyDeal.com who show that currently GMG are doing BF1 for €47

Shouldn't be, just use G2A shield, and make sure it doesn't give you a monthly subscription.

 

If key is not working you should recive a new key in under 3 days

Using G2A shield does not prevent sellers from selling keys that were bought with stolen credit cards, cracked keys, or stolen keys.

It also does not give the creators of the game the money they deserve for putting time and effort into creating something good.

Of course Humble Bundle is, it's a completely authorized reseller. G2A and Kinguin are not, and how "ok" they are depends on how the key you are buying was obtained.

Well the people who spend thousands of hours creating something to feed their families do care.
