Ejarwan bro, how much is Payday 2?

around $13, that is cheaper than a 50% off.

Also I have never used Steam. From what I read: these are not CD keys or something, right? These are sent as gift with that trading system and cannot ("really") be reversed, right? Thanks.

Not true at all. The advantage of doing an in game trade rather than getting redeemable CD keys is that if the purchase is found to be fraudulent then Steam will reverse the trade meaning your not worse off. Except in this case, since you traded with BTC rather than in game items Steam will just remove them from your account and possibly ban it if it thinks you are an alt account. In effect, it offers you no different protection at all.
Thank you for correcting.

That was the first thing I found, but was indeed wrong. I searched after that post and figured that the game will be removed and account will be blocked if the payment of the trade/gift is reversed. (I don't care about my account though as I don't have other games.)

So when I saw that, I decided to only trade if somehow he had more trust that a bitcointalk newbie. And I figured (based on his steam profile/comments and googleing on his username) that he did do at least hundreds of trades, going back from 2012. So in the end I traded because of that, even though like you said, there is definitely still a risk.

Thanks for making it clear for others. Personally I still took the gamble for 50% off Cheesy but others will have to decide for them own Smiley it is indeed not without risk.
there is no risk at all actually, because my Terms of service states that if by a chance the game gets removed from your inventory, you can get a full refund or can get another copy of the game.
and been trading since years, this never happened.

Just bought Tropico 5. His steam profile/comments looked decent so I sent first. Went all good.

Escrow is when an uninterested third-party (the escrow agent) holds something important to one of the other parties. Escrow agents can be either one person or a group of people acting as some type of organization (web services are always still handled by human beings in case of dispute, though).

Usually on this forum, it's used where someone wants to sell something, but the buyer doesn't want to pay upfront because he doesn't fully trust the seller. Instead, the seller finds a reputable escrow agent who will hold his money which the buyer must also agree to use. Then, the escrow agent is basically just a contract enforcer. He ensures the contract (this could be as simple as the seller saying "I'll sell you two working 1H-IEN4-KL LCD monitors for 1BTC") is fully enforced. When the escrow agent is satisfied that the contract has run successfully to its end (or when the buyer tells the escrow agent escrow can be released to the seller), the escrow agent will send the coins or whatever to the seller.


Escrow can't protect you from everything and is constrained by the contract. They often act as arbitrators in case of dispute, where they'll settle on who breached contract and what the outcome of that should be, which may or may not be in your favor. A weak purchase agreement like the simple example I gave is an example of abusing escrow due to how much is left up in the air (Who pays shipping on returns? What happens if there's a dead pixel? etc). Oftentimes, purchase agreements are really vague, so you're relying on the escrow agent just "doing what's right," which is obviously very subjective.

There are a bunch of other uses for escrow, though. If a lender wants collateral from a lendee, the lendee would want that collateral held by an escrow agent so they know the lender won't just run off when given the collateral. If someone has a giveaway where they offer to give .05BTC to charity each time someone posts an original photograph of a llama spitting, they might want to pre-pay donations into charity so the people taking pictures of llamas know their efforts won't be wasted.
so it's more like a middle man.
that's cool.
can any1 be an Escrow? (I dont want to be/) just asking how hard it is to be 1?
1052  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: question related to Escrow. on: May 23, 2014, 09:14:19 AM
Buyer sends money to escrow, you send item to buyer, escrow sends funds to you.

1057  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Buying TF2 keys. on: May 21, 2014, 03:19:56 AM
What are the keys you guys are talking about? Like CD-Keys or some items that are rewarded for playing?

It's an Item in a game called Team Fortress 2.

Oh, I knew what the game was. I was just wondering about the keys. I've gotten a lot of drops but none of those! :p.

Here's a really good explanation of what they are, and they can't be dropped, they must be be bought.
http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Mann_Co._Supply_Crate_Key

Ahhh, thanks! So that brings up a question, then. Why would someone sell for $1.80 if they bought them for over $2? What would be the incentive?

I have no idea, maybe they are bought with stolen credit cards and hacked accounts?
dude no, because people obtain them from playing (I guess), and no way every trader on this planet is a carder.
and the value of BTC is greater than pp, as you pay an exchange rate.
1058  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Buying TF2 keys. on: May 20, 2014, 06:50:41 PM
I will be paying with BTC, let me know how many you got.

How much will you pay for one?
depends on the quantity.

How many do you need?
depends on the price lol.
just tell me how much u got and ill offer a price.
or tell me how much u want for them and ill tell u if im interested and the quantity.

I can buy as many as you want, lol. How does 0.006BTC for one sound?
that is like $2.896, so hell no.
I always buy mine for $1.8 PAYPAL, and since BTC is worth more than PayPal then I would pay a bit less, so no thanks.

Why should I take a loss and sell it to you? Also, they cost $2.49 each, and I need fees to cover the exchange?
Also, $1 in BTC = $1 Paypal.
they cost $2.49?!
if u think so then I can sell u keys for $2 BTC?

I don't need any, but where the heck you are buying them for $1.8???
dude u can find them for $1.8 EVERYWHERE lol...

Found it. Lol, it costs $2.49 on the official Steam Store.
yeah, but if you buy from individuals then yeah that would be $1.8
and no $1 pp doesn't = $1 BTC.
