PostWhich steam key sites can I trust?
by Ironhide » Tue Jul 08, 2014 9:04 pm

After missing the Steam sale price for Divinity Original Sin I've been looking for the cheapest place to get it and found a couple of cd key sites selling steam keys for roughly £20.

after a quick google search it seems that some people are getting their games removed/locked by valve as they're dodgy Russian copies.

I've seen a lot of praise for gamekeys4all.com but am a bit reluctant , has anyone bought anything from them before and were there any problems?

I've bought a few games from Russian traders without problems. There's a reseller on NeoGAF who's selling keys for $17. I can try to get you one if you like. I've never bought from gamekeys4all.com but I don't like the look of it.

AFAIK there are "legit" key sites with it - everyone selling it will be kickstarters/bundle extra codes.

Best bet might be looking for a private seller (like I did Tineash)

It's worth full price tbh

edit- g2play in the bargin thread is a deal

I'm half tempted to just pay full price and not risk it.

I bought a Wolfenstein key from Amazon as I missed it in the Steam sale. Didn't even realise there were dodgy keys like that but I'm assuming Amazon is fine.

I bought Sniper Elite 3 from cdkeys.com, having never had any problems with them before. After the whole key fiasco, they quickly gave me a full refund and a £5 voucher code, so that worked out fine for me - i'll just wait until the game is cheap anyway.

simplycdkeys.com and cdkeys.com have been great for me, and as far as I know they're both legitimate resellers. Simplycdkeys is part of Simplygames.

EDIT: Greenmangaming are great as well, and always seem to have discount codes on offer.

These two sites are who I use and they're great.

SimplyCDKeys is just the sister site of Simply Games, who have been a legit site for years.

I did notice that Divinity: Original Sin isn't being sold on either of them, though.

I use https://www.gamekeysnow.com/ - never had any issues at all with them and I've been buying from them for well over a year now.

Eventually decided to just pay full price rather than risk it just to save a few quid.
