It's entirely possible that they bought game codes on sale and are selling them at a higher price, for a few bucks profit. Which as noted in my previous post, is totally against GOG'd terms of use.

More likely is the codes were purchased with stolen credit cards, which means the seller in reality paid nothing and is reaping 100% profit on selling the illegally purchased keys.

Really, why is it so hard for you to accept that G2A is not a good place to patronize? There have been many incidents of keys being revoked by GOG because they were obtained and sold illegally through G2A. This is most assuredly a case of the old saying "If it looks too good to be true, it is".

Why are you dissing Chinese electronics hardware? Not all of it spontaneously combusts, OK? ... I mean, at least not right away.

Are those chocolate chips or raisins? Or something else o_O

Its bacon

BACON?

nothing to be proud of really..

Just like buying Rolexes from the really nice guy in the parking lot is so legit and so cheap. "Look at all of the testimonials!" People like you are suckers, not deal hunters.

The good news is that if you used Paypal you can chargeback within 30 days. Save up your allowance and buy them during sales.

I didn't do anything wrong.

That doesn't bother me. What bothers me is when I lay a plate of chocolate chip cookies down, you take them, and five minutes later come back with a plate of plain cookies that have little craters all over them.

I can't make money that way...unless someone likes plain cookies. *shivers*

If you're going to use G2A... just pirate the damn game already. It's all the same to the publishers, and at least you're not supporting G2A's shady business, card fraud, and all that key-reseller grey market crap. I actually have way more respect for pirates than sites like G2A. At least piracy also performs something of a "game preservation" function, and pirates have been known to fix games faster and better than the devs.

I'm starting to think GOG should change the way gifts work. Make it so that you can only buy a gift for a specified user, only if he does not already own the game, and that user is the only one who can use the code. It wouldn't even ruin giveaways, you'd just need to buy the game after someone wins the giveaway.

I'll put out an APB.
