Key resellers

Unread postby icycalm » 01 Apr 2017 00:15

The best key marketplace I've found so far: https://www.g2a.com/

And my analysis of the key reselling market, from Discord: https://discord.gg/7ZKAkEj

I wrote:What key resellers are basically doing is buying lots of keys during sales and with bundles, and then reselling them for a slight profit when these deals and bundles expire
So if a game has been on sale even ONCE, you can get that price forever for a slight markup
And I mean SLIGHT, because apparently reseller competition is fierce, and they are content with making pennies out of each key they resell
They are providing a very valuable service, so I think they well deserve whatever profit they are making
Not to speak of the keys they provide for delisted games

From Discord:

I wrote:Just bought Prey (2006), Bastion, Skullgirls, XCOM and Duke Nukem Forever from G2A for 10 euros
I have in-depth reviews for all of them, that's (mostly) why I bought them
It feels like a garage sale every day all day over there
No need to wait for bundles: just go browse a few times a month and your Steam collection will blow up
