L4D2 It is currently 99¢ on US steam, do keys sites get cheaper than that?

Best case scenario you are buying a key that someone bought in a cheaper region and is selling it in a more expensive region.

Worst case, your financial details or login are stolen.

Most likely case, you’re buying a key that was either bought with stolen cards or a key that was directly stolen.

In any case the developer of the game can revoke a key for being obtained fraudulently, and since any keys bought with stolen funds are susceptible to a charge back fee and thus cost them money many would just prefer you pirate (since that costs them nothing).

If it’s not a primarily multiplayer game just pirate it

I’ve bought dozens of games on key sites. The only time I’ve ever had an issue was one key got revoked a month later and the game removed from my account then presumably because it was bought with a stolen credit card or something. 99% of cases I didn’t have any issues though

The hype is overblown, CD key resellers are generally fine. G2A has decent customer protection. Easier to just pirate the games in most instances.

Yes they are i’ve bought like 5 games from cdkeys in the past. But i would suggest piracy over that tbh

I’m always afraid I’ll end up paying like 10$ for a game and then get a bogus key that doesn’t even work

Pirate and look at cs.rin.ru for a steamworks script

I’ve used allkeyshop to check prices vs. ratings and never got scammed for what it’s worth lol. kinguin and g2a are fine ime. recommend PayPal of course.
