Antimateria: Anyway I haven't heard that site before.

amok: Which is always a good warning sign :)
Actually I think it's well known, it has around 20k fans on facebook and a few times I've noticed on another forum that people are buying from there. I just created my account a couple of hours ago, they've e-mailed me a photo of the key on the box almost immediately after the payment, and activation on STEAM was successful. So authorized or not I'm happy with my 15€ purchase of new 40€ game xD.

A photo? why they just didn't send it to you?

AFAIK A photo of a key is always unauthorised and can at some times get you in troubles... Good for you if it works, but I would not trust them to much.

I think that I've read somewhere that photo of the box with your visible cd-key is required to be send on STEAM support center in case of some trouble (hacked account, etc.). And since the keys they are sending are from retail editions of the game, it's welcomed to own such a proof I think.

I'll probably stick to buying only from steam and GMG then, but the temptation to buy for such a low price was very high. Anyway, I'm glad that it works.

Enjoy your game .

One of those CD key selling website is still offering The Witcher 2 Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition (GOG) . I PM-ed about it to TheEnigmaticT in Sep. 1, 2012 . The offer is still in there . Looks like GOG doesn't care about it .

Where are keys nowadays anyway. Inside the box of course.. But still. I just use download mechanism.

No it is logical enough - it is a re-sell scheme. They buy cheap physical copies where they are and then sell the keys on-line.

when you buy on-line, the email you get is your proof of purchase, when you buy physical a picture of the box is. However - this is very open to abuse, as you never actually get the box, and there may have been several restrictions around the original sale you are not aware of.

There have been several instances of games being removed from people's account when it has been aquiered from unauthorised sellers.

Last Christmas was a big issue with it, when they accidental removed some legal Amazon and GG games being caught up in a purge due to an increase of these sales.

Or don't forget about Dead Island . I lost my Steam copy in that way .

One time my gamersgate Arkham city. My key didn't work again when i installed the game again. So, my thought was that they sometimes are selling old keys. Well it worked after I contacted support and got me another key.

Thank you. They are selling gog keys? I think they should care about it, because with this "GOG free backup copy" system it's possible to just buy thousands of The Witcher 2 copies on STEAM when it's on 75% OFF sale and resell the one activation key as two copies of the game - STEAM / GOG to 2 different customers.

Last Christmas? did you get caought up in the purge? AFAIK all who could prove they bought the game from authorised sellers did get the games activated again.

A side issue - what annoys me a bit is the waste of it all. What can the seller do now with the physical copy? nothing at all so it goes right in the bin.....
