Short version: Paid 25 sacks of gems for a global key of Starcraft 2 wings of liberty and got nothing in return.

Long version: It's somewhat complicated so I will try to be as clear and as unbiased as possible, I do believe there were honest intentions in the beginning but result is I got nothing in return for my 25 sacks of gems (~15€). We agreed on 25 sacks for a global key for wings of liberty which he would buy in g2a. I delivered the gems and he bought the key (He immediately sold all the gems before completing the trade which i think it's a bit unprofessional but that's another matter). He gave me the key and as I was redeeming it the key said it was "RU SC2 key" aka blizzard said the key was russian. I wanted global key so I told him I could not accept it. He contacted g2a and they told him it was global but I still would not accept it as I could not be sure. He then without consulting me REDEEMED the key in AN ACCOUNT OF HIS OWN ACCOUNT to prove it was global, which turned out was true. I was pissed off at that point as I wanted the key in my account, not other account. Even then I finally accepted that if he successfully changed account ownership to me I would accept the trade without making a fuss. As it turns out battle.net security is tight and its not possible to trade an account without exchanging personal information to change credentials or no guarantees that he can "steal" the account back to him any time as the credentials are his. Seeing this he deleted me as friend and I have not heard from him again. SO I have lost my 25 sacks of gems and got nothing in return.

Summary: It does seem he is a good trader in general, but if something goes wrong do not expect him to take responsibilities for his mistakes.... and expect to lose your payment if you went first, specially if it was an expensive trade...

I guess when you have higher feedback you're able to take advantage of some people. Anyway in this case its a hit and run. User claims he was scammed and out of his payment that he was going to use to pay me, so he was pretty much in a 3 person transaction trade. Says he got scammed and never got paid for the key and therefore was requesting another key from me and says he'll be able to pay me much more. Long story short, he deleted his comment from my trade page, deleted me from steam, and changed his name on steamgifts as well as steam. User just be aware, just because they have a lot of rep does not mean they always have priority. Double check their inventory before trading and make sure you take screenshots, in which I did.

Overall:

  1. Was trading Dying Light Key
  2. Provided the Key for redemption.
  3. Key was redeemed.

  4. Claimed he was scammed, requested another key and "will pay more".
  5. I declined and he never paid. (15 CSGO Key)
  6. User deleted comment from my trade.

In the end though if you came clean and just said you got scammed and you cannot pay for it I probably would have been fine, but the fact that you yourself went to the trouble to hide yourself probably got you your first negative feedback.

Anyways for those who are trading Keys, try to ask for payment first as you can't really get your Key back, and don't listen to "my feed back is higher" than yours because those can be generated easily.

Have fun man!

Edit: Pending for conclusion: like you said on feedback, I can give you a week but after that I don't know.
