and how is this different than any other trade for a game that was bought on sale? Your argument of lol it wuz .27 guise is invalid as demonstrated by the amount of trades for L4D2 and portal 2 (sale $5) being traded for 3-4 keys each. But hey expecting anything intelligible thought or reasoning out of a troll is too much to ask.
any idiot with a key could have sold it to the market and made enough money to buy just cause with money left. When you start to talk about L4D2 and other 5 dollar games. You also need to consider you can buy keys with PayPal for around $1.40 from people. So if you bought keys from someone for around $1.50, and you give them 3-4 for a $5 game, they are still getting the game for $4.50 to $6.00 which ends up being an even trade.
Show me sellers for $1.40 most are at around 1.80 Per key as if keys were 1.40 no one would sell L4D2 (besised maybe russians but that's a different point) for 3 keys as they would lose money. Using the prices you have provided as keys being 1.50 (lol) then selling a $5.00 game for 4 keys yields a $1.00 profit. Given that just cause was on sale for $.27 the profit yield would be only $1.23. If keys were $1.80 as I have very commonly seen, a L4D2 sale would yield a $2.20 profit while a Just Cause would yield a $1.67 profit.
The point being that your argument of "you only bought it for $.27 therefore it is worth $.27" is completely hypocritical given that the end results (profit) are fairly equal if not greater for when someone is selling a $5.00 game. At any price between the $1.40-1.80 per key range the profits for both games will remain fairly equal before tipping into the $5.00 games favor.
I'm only trying to say that you shouldn't expect something higher than steam keys from amazon or bundles. Yes you might be able to profit, but by no means would you be getting a tf2 key. Maybe for 5 copies but that is pushing it. I never said it should be sold at what you purchased it for. My previous comment, when i said "not when it's .27 cents, i was agreeing with the other guy's comment. The only gift someone might be willing to give you for it would be other cheap ones like Iron Warrior, Fortix, or Guns of Icarus. Also, i never meant to piss you off, and i respect your knowledge of market selling.
Got a bunch of these and looking to pick up a few different games. Only doing 1:1 trades and only accepting giftable games meaning I don't want keys.
I will also take 1 Tf2 key for a copy of just cause.
