How to sell a Steam key for a game?

[KillWonder]

I have an unused Steam key for a game. Can I sell it and how?

[Ogami]

Not on Steam. Depends also a lot where you got the key from. For example Humble Bundle forbids the reselling of their keys. As do most other key stores.

I bought 2 keys by accident and they dont allow for refund.

Well, the best way would be to ask friends of yours if they want the game. Everything else is either highly risky (Ebay) or very shady ( the key reseller with the 3 letters or similar).

Its not risky! The key works as I used one fo them for my own!
But my question was is it possible to sell such keys on here?

That would be the same thing someone trying to do a scam with a fake key would say. Either you would have to trust a perfect stranger with the key before you get the money or a perfect stranger would have to trust you with the money befor he gets the key. How is that not risky?

Im not scamming! I can show the receipt.

The site where you've got the key could be, lot's of people has had games removed even months after they bought and activated gamekeys from dodgy keyseller sites.
And feytharn has a very valid point.

My point is, you can't gurantee, that the source to the key you have is not scamming, the keys could have been obtained fradulently, and could be revoked at a later point.

Buying/selling keys is risky no matter how you try to cut it.
Stick to legit resellers is my advice, never buy keys of dodgy sites or random strangers.

Rockon, could have and should have, you can speculate like this all day, a car could hit you tomorrow, a bicycle should avoid you, of course everything is possible if you put your mind and focus on it, it will happen, as for the trust, trust is built with sales and buyer feedback that builds your seller rating. Meaning a shady seller will stand no chance to an already established seller with thousands of sales and positive feedback.

At some point established sellers have so many positive reviews they can handle a batch of bad keys now and then and see little to no chance to their rep.

My advice is still standing.
