Why do you think someone would give you $25 for $20?

Would you be willing to lose $5 doing such thing?

Steam cards cannot be purchased 'cheaper'. If you want a $20 card, you pay $20. It's that simple. Anything else is a scam. Only buy from official retail sources which have cards/receipts with full till authentication.

"buyers protection" is another name for "the gullible tax."

Gameflip is a fine marketplace. I bought and sold on there for over a year now with no problem. They do have a good buyer protection (I got refunds from bad code once).

You still want to watch out for scammy sellers who want to rate "first" before delivering the code or item. If the seller delivers a code that does not work, just file a dispute, and you will be okay.

Probably best not to encourage users to use a site which is already filtered as an unathorised 3rd party site by Valve.
