WARNING : Don't buy a CD KEY on external websites.

[Pepito]

Hello, I see many people are as broke as me in this forum, and you might be interested in spending 10 less dollars to get yourself a key on a website like Gamivo, Kinguin, etc

If you do so, first, you won't get the 300 points in game (worth 30$, extremely useful especially if you don't have any POE1 stash tabs that are mandatory if you wanna go into late game)
+ after a few days, your key will be removed, because the one they sold you will probably be some stolen ♥♥♥♥ and you will end up like me, without money and without a key :clown:

Let's cry for Christmas now

It's a discount award just like your discount bootleg key

LMAO

They probably sold gift keys or something.

Oh RIGHT, I forgot about these, some people got extra keys for some reason, right ? Which are of course meant to be gifts for friends and not something profitable. Meh.

Not often you find someone respectable enough to admit his wrongdoings and warning others. I was half expecting the typical "My key isnt working anymore, report gamedevs" and leading out the part it was bought externally

Thank you, I'm not sure it's a "wrongdoing" tho, I believe buying keys from such websites is allowed since those are usually real keys that people buy in bulk and re-sell after ? I have never seen any game banning people for buying these or saying it's forbidden

If you must buy Steam keys, buy them only from Steam verified sites such as Greenmangaming.

Black market key sellers deal in stolen keys and often funnel your money into organized crime.

[Pepito]

I definitely won't do it again, and ty for the advice about Greenmangaming

I got blocked from my account today, so are you saying after redeeming the key on steam, playing for 75h they can just block me and don't even tell me why? I could try to get a refund or something but I don't even know for sure what's the reason. I bought the key from kinguin where I bought keys for years without any problems ever...

I don't care how broke people are, they need to be really stupid to buy keys from places like those. They're no different from those who were falling for the "10 billion keys giveaway" threads here.

IF you bought from places that are clear a scam, yes. Otherwise, contact support.

[GetUrAssToMars]

Oh wow. They are selling this cheaper.

I use key sites fairly often, but the fact this isn't really a key I'd would exercise caution.

This is what happened to me, this is the second time I got a problem like that in Kinguin/Gamivo etc, they refunded me last time and I hope they do it too this time.
This is not POE fault tho, sure they could explain but our bad for buying their game cheaper

Since when caring for money and not overspending makes you stupid?
I thought that trying to pay least possible price for the same product is common sense.
Especialy for bunch of pixels XD

I wonder if your preordered the game.
