[Ruvaen]

i need help g2a said i have to ask steam support for the redeem date +time of a key (because i bought a game and the key is duplicated) but i cant contact with the support T.T

G2A isn't related to Steam/Valve in any way.
And it's known to have keys like that.

[Ruvaen]

Nothing that I know of.

Steam will not reveal such information as it is private information about an account

That site knows that. They know Steam will not reveal private information.

They just are deflecting from the fact that they scammed you and don't care

Next time purchase only from authorized resellers

As Satoru said, Valve will not provide you with such infromation. G2A knows that as well, yet they require it for a refund or to re-issue a key.

If you can't do it through G2A, then try through your payment (ie: Credit/debit, paypal).

Seriously - Steam should CHARGE non Steam sites for downloading keys sold on their sites from Steam servers.

At least Origin and GOG have the courtesy to supply their own servers.

At the moment Steam's set up is subsidising its competitors and some of them are as dodgy as f...orget what.

Sure... They could do that and then they would lose a LOT of AAA games from their game list, because part of the selling point of Steam for game publishers to use it (or Steamworks and Source for that matter) is that all keys for use outside of Steam are free as long as Steam gets to sell it without being undercut in price by any other sales location. Doing so can lead to them requiring special contract arrangements where a royalty is charged, but as long as they get to sell it at a competative price point, retail and gift keys for outside of steam are free to the publishers/developers.

And for the purpose of reselling keys without being a retailer, there are already clauses against doing it in any sales that involves Steam keys and doing so is a technically a violation of the EULA... They can be bartered, traded, given away, or handed out as prizes, but not resold.

Uhm ... you do not download keys from servers. And a Steam key is always in some way paid for, because it allows you to use their services.

Steam IS PC download gaming. Most developers wouldn't want to give up on Steam. Other retailers could pay a service charge for using Steam's servers. Unscruplous developers could otherwise "sell" the game at a high price on Steam, and then actually distribute via other retailers or themselves at a far lower price and effectively get Steam's download services for free.

There are a LOT of posts ATM about how other sites are cheaper than Steam and not all are genuinely independent (like Origin or GOG) . Let them pay their way and stop subsidising your competitors.

S.x.

Steam doesn't, at the moment, get any money for Steam keys not sold by Steam.
