Title: SteamGiveaways.com - Steam Game Gifts for the lowest price (BTC)
Post by: sgiveaways on December 16, 2016, 02:25:18 AM
Hi everyone! I just launched my new site http://www.SteamGiveaways.com (http://www.SteamGiveaways.com), which allows buying a small (but frequently updated) collection of Steam Games using BTC for the lowest prices.
If you find any of the games for a lower price anywhere, let me know, and I'll adjust them.

I'm still in process of restocking, and more games will appear during this weekend. If you have any questions, please feel free to reply!

Counter-Strike Complete

Just for $9  ??? I have bought CS:GO at around 15$ and in this bundle there are three games including CS:GO.
How you have managed to provide such price.  :o Will there be any chargebacks? There is lock down period of 30 days from the date of purchase in steam to wait for chargebacks.

Yes, OP, are these legal methods? Not doubting you or anything, but you are a newbie. Will you provide a warranty, or maybe use escrow? I don't think other sites go anywhere near that price point.

(Which is a great discount, your low price point is a good thing! Keep it that way. I'm just wondering.)

Hi there! I understand your concern, however you can be rest assured that all games (Steam Gifts) listed on the site are tradable. In other words, none of the games have a trade lock, which is why there aren't any 'recent' games for sale.  After you purchase a game, you will notice that the Steam Gift doesn't show a trade lock. This basically proves that there won't (or can't) be any chargebacks whatsoever, as the games are older than 30 days (and are limited in stock).

I used to be a trader and have thousands of Steam Gifts that I want to get rid of, so I decided to create this site to sell my games.

I will start putting more games later in the weekend.

If you live in 3rd world country, i'm sure you still find the price on steam (on summer/winter sales) is cheaper than your website or any video games resellers out there.
But, i might check your website if you also sell Origin games.

Keep in mind that those games are restricted. People from other countries would have to circumvent to play them, which is against Valve/Steam's TOS. The games I sell are mainly worldwide gifts, which can be activated and played in every single country. My target is EU and US (and other expensive Steam region) customers after all.

I don't sell any Origin games or "game keys" unfortunately. All the games listed on my website are Steam Gifts.

Wow, game price is lowest 30% than original game, OP where you get the item? It's legal or illegal?

Since you're newbie here with just 3 activity(i'm not offense), i think you should put escrow first, also improve your site to use secure url, means using SSL. And like @viziano said, site name need to change, it's bring misunderstanding to people.

These are awesome prices on the games you offer, and your conversion rate isn't predatory (between BTC/USD). This is HUGE compared to most, so A++! Are you able to take requests?

Thank you! I don't do requests unfortunately, because I stopped being a trader a long time ago. Now I just want to get rid of the Steam gifts I own.

I explained it here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1717470.msg17201223#msg17201223 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1717470.msg17201223#msg17201223) In short, I am only selling the games I own, which is why the supply is limited.

About the escrow, I don't know if the script I use supports that. I will look into it, thanks.


I just added 3 copies of 12 Labours of Hercules for only $0.10 per Steam Gift. If you don't own the game, I highly recommend it. The reviews on Steam do as well: http://store.steampowered.com/app/342580/ (http://store.steampowered.com/app/342580/)

Most new websites tend to make new accounts since they're normally only interested in one thing their product.
Their rank won't really go up until they have to answer a bit of comments.

Still nobody yet? Wondering the same... costs are low for a "test" purchase but a lot of people like to scam for a dollar and less around here anyways so even that isn't necessarily proof. Not really wanting to be the tester.

I just bought Saints Row Ultimate Franchise from them,
Just waiting for payment to confirm now.

Hopefully I didn't get stiffed here, for a good business :)

Thank you for your order, and don't worry, there's no reason for concern!
It appears as your order was already validated, and you should see your "Steam Gift" link on your orders page:

http://steamgiveaways.com/store/?page=account&action=myorders (http://steamgiveaways.com/store/?page=account&action=myorders)

Just copy the link to your browser, and activate the game on Steam. Have fun!  ;)

PS: It's frustrating, that many are concerned about getting scammed, which makes them vary about my website.
I certainly understand where it's coming from though, but it's unfair towards legitimate services like mine.
I guess the only way for me to proof that I'm offering a legitimate service is by word of mouth.

I received my order and I can vouch for your service :)
Good luck with your service!!

I'm gonna be a regular here from now on!
Hope you stock this up frequently!

The problem is this is exactly what all the scammers say as well. You'll gain your footing over time. Saw Emerge's vouch as well, which should help, :).

I would buy fallout 4 if i didnt already have it i checked some of your prices.
Your pretty close to g2a prices so ill check this out again for sure.
Though it would like to see a better layout for the site, its not a must do but sure would look better.
