Well.... I hope this will fix it, after all I'm the one who loses money but I can take the losses at the moment, there are some people I sold a bundle to who just can't take a loss.
who could have thought that this would happen?! facepalm you deserve some loss!
No idea why this comment is appropiate but lost around 20 keys already without the refunds if you really want to know it... Please leave my thread if you have no usefull info
yea, you couldnt have seen that coming...
let me guess, some guys rich uncle made it possible to sell BTA bundles way under their legit price and you only wanted to make a lil' profit with it.
what would you do if the bundles you bought were a bit cheaper (not like 15 cards for a BTA) and they didn't disappear as others said? I had most of these bundles for over a week before I sold them. They didn't vanish. And at the point of selling no one addressed any sort of CC fraud. that came a week/2 weeks later.
idk man. but my alarms would have sounded off, if they were only a cent cheaper than BTA. why shold anybody mass-sell them with loss??
I've been thinking about this myself, but I would have a logical solution to sell them cheaper. I.E. myself, I have 50$ amazon giftcredit on my account and I don't live in the US so I can't buy items which could be delivered. the highest value you get by amazon -> PayPal is selling bundles for tf2 keys and selling the keys for PayPal money and if you don't want to wait and sell these for 3 keys ea when the bundle is for example only 4.50$ you just sell them for 2 = a bit loss but fast amazon -> PayPal.
It was wrong of you in the first place to resell bundles that somone else bought.
If the buyers already added the games to their library doesn't make it ok either as the bundle site/publishers/devs will get no money.
Something to think about
Could be, but I had no idea actually since all bundles stayed legit, untill now. And about the site not getting any money: thats none of my business to be honest. I wasnt the one buying the bundles. I've only put this up for the customers that actually lost their games
They still get money if you buy gift copies. If you're talking about him selling bundles that have already been used, he wasn't trying to scam people, he had no idea that the person he bought the bundles from used a fake credit card.
They get no money if you use fraudulent methods for the purchase. If you want to be on the safe side, buy the bundles directly from the site yourself.
He didn't purposely try to scam people, so he wasn't saying it was okay either. Yeah I agree with you there, it's already cheap enough to buy it yourself + no chance of being scammed. But some people don't have access to a credit card so I assume that's one of the reasons why they trade TF2 keys or other games.
Bump! i had the same problem 3 days ago with a fraudulent trader, i bought one bundle by myself and i've refounded the bundle
I bought a cheap Humble Weekly BTA last week from a traderhere. Now I am pretty sure this was some creditcard-fraud.
I redeemed the games, but as stated above, this makes nothing better.
And no offense, but I cant see ethics and moral here after a comment like "thats non of my business if they get money".
about that business thing. I didn't buy the bundles, it's not my business that humblebundle gets money, that's the business of the trader I bought the bundles from. + I want to refund the ones that actually lost their bundle, i'm pretty sure the games won't be removed from everyone's library because otherwise there will be way too many people losing quite a number of games.
Wanted to let you guys know that recently (1-2 days ago) turned out that the bundles I sold 2 weeks ago were fraudently obtained and are revoked from your humblebundle account.
At the point of selling I had these bundles already 3 days-1.5 weeks in my mail, I got those from another seller. the fraudently obtained bundles at the time were gone within 1-3 hours, I constantly checked the bundles I got and after 3 days-1,5 weeks they were still there, reason enough for me to think they were legit and trade them away.
Now, 2-3 weeks later I got contacted by one of my buyer I traded with saying his bundle was revoked, I refunded him and it's all good now, another trader gave me -rep and didn't respond to my friend add yet to refund his purchase.
I'm really sorry to for what happened with these bundles, at the time of selling I had no idea these bundles were fraudently obtained.
Ways to get a refund from me!!!!!!!!!!
- You have to have bought a bundle from me which I'm sure of is illegally obtained (I can track them through my mail)
- You have to NOT have the games in the bundle activated on your steam account (otherwise they will just stay and the refund is not actually needed)
- You have to contact ME, I won't contact all the traders I traded with because I simply don't know which of all the trades bought bundles
I hope you guys understand my situation here, I had no idea at the point of selling and I hope this will get some things right.
Edit 1: Got contact with the trader that gave me -rep, he was really understanding and -rep has been removed.
Edit 2: This thread will be up for some days to give anyone active the time to contact me, if you have problems after this thread closes just contact me through steam.
