Is g2a legit?

[NekoMeko]

I really want to buy dragon age inquisition but its a whooping £49.99 and that is a lot, i noticed i can buy it on g2a for £30.00 which is a much better deal, is the website for real or is it a scam?

I bought a game, never got a key and i still paid the money.

I wouldnt trust it AT ALL.

Also sorry if i revived this post

I've bought a ton of games from G2A, over 30 in the past year. I rarely use the shield also, and not once have I had a problem. That is not to say problems don't happen, but they can, albiet unlikely.

Always use G2A shield otherwise you are screwed if something goes wrong. I was lucky, bought Witcher 3 when it came out from G2A (with shield) and about 2 weeks ago the game was removed from my Steam Library, made a complaint at G2A like wtf happened. After a couple of hours they refunded my purchase but ONLY because I had Shield (usually 1€ ~ 1$). So morale of the story always pay that little extra money for the shield.

Or perhaps buy it from somewhere that's not going to cause the game to get revoked because it's a stolen/re-used/whatever key.

Yes it is legit. I have bought of there and never been scammed. As long as you buy from the website, not 3rd party traders.

Firstly, one successful transaction does not make something legit.
Secondly, you didn't post a reflink.
Thirdly, you're lucky you didn't post a reflink because you'd have been banned for spam.

And pay 50%-100% more? Nah. |'ve bought 5-6 games on G2A, both Uplay and Steam. Sold a couple too, never had any problems, Keys were delivered and still work, in english and I saved at least $60, plus made $7 by selling the two games I had duplicates of from a bundle.

Basically buying a G2A key is something you do at your own risk, if it works then it works but we/they are not liable for anything that may happen due to buying a grey area key.

g2a makes you pay for shield protection even if you switch it off. When you switch it off your simply waving the 30 day membership to shield protection. So everyone who bought a game and didn't get a key is covered under the warranty protection of shield. Contact customer support on their live chat and youll be helped, I have and they were good to me. I put the key in the wrong client so it wasn't a bad key but.

another thing people don't know is when you buy a game at the store or on a client, all you're buying is the key. The disk the game comes with is simply to take some of the download weight off your internet bill. With clients you're stuck to download the entire title as per.

You selling 2 games that you actually had is one thing.
Some random guy selling 1,000? From whence did these come?

I bought 20 or 25 games from G2A not from the sellers
and never got scammed
first game I bought it from them in 2013 and latest game 2 weeks ago
all of them in my steam library until now .

Absolute pirate of a company.

Bought a £3 game ended up costing well over £20.
NEVER GIVE THIS COMPANY YOUR BANK DETAILS OR PAYPAL!!! NEVER EVER PAY THEM ANYTHING.

This companies methods are so bad I am reporting to trading standards.
Customer service of the agents seems to be massively restricted on what they can and can't do, "sorry sir, nothing is possible" being the usual answer. I doubt anyone has ever had a refund.
Cancelling things like G2A shield involves spending ages looking for the TINY hidden button, hidden in a myriad of account settings (even the agent I spoke to didn't know where it was), then having to literally ask them to remove it around 10 - 15 times, doing questionnaires and verification emails etc. Whats more, your bank will charge you extra after paying them in your own currency.
Obviously, no confirmation of these charges will be sent to you by G2A, as they clearly prefer to hide the fact they are thief's.

They might be cheap, but stay WELL clear of them and stick to Steam, Instant Gaming or GOG.

It is a legit website but I would recommend to pay for G2A shield also whenever you buy a key. This will ensure the saftey of your money in case anything goes wrong
