Thanks everyone for trying out my service. I've had almost $4k USD in sales in the 3 days that I was open. The rest of the days I was closed because I kept on running out of inventory. There is an obvious market need for this service!

If anybody else wants to read reviews, there were a few reddit threads about it:

After some good advice, I have adjusted the service to require ONE blockchain confirmation before the steam code.

Edit:

Lots of you guys are hilarious. Did you think I wouldn't sanitize all my DB queries? These are some of the "email addresses" that have been entered:

And yes, I agree to the person who entered the email address "you should have some email validation" :-) I'll whip that together here in a few minutes.

I managed to get through the maze that is Valve software to contact their North American distributor. We forged a relationship and now I can buy Wallet Codes for Steam directly from the source.

Now you can buy the codes from me and not worry about getting your Steam account being canceled because you bought a code from someone that used a stolen credit card.

The bad news is that they don't have a working online-activation system, so I have to pre-purchase the wallet codes. This means that I only keep an inventory of a few dozen cards on the site. When I sell out for the day, it'll be another day until I can restock. All my profit will be used to increase the inventory until there is enough for days worth without reloads.

I'm stocking up for this weekend and while I haven't finalized my Bitcoin Black Friday plan yet, I think I'm going to be giving away free $5 wallet codes for the first 20 orders. I'll update when I've come to a decision. I'm also still trying to figure out customer demand to decide what codes to stock ($5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 are available)

Features:

• Once codes are sold, they are hashed on the server so even a compromise won't result in your wallet code being used before you use it.
• Orders don't require confirmations (although I am considering requiring one confirmation for $50 and $100 codes)
• Prices are generated from 24 hour bitcoin average price
• Codes work with Steam accounts that use any currency. One customer bought a $10 USD card and applied it to his UK account and it funded £6.20

Great service idea. I'm about to go live with a business that has pledged to donate 10% to 15% of its income to opensource developers, and this is the perfect service for me to use.

My only requirement would be to have a profile page I can link to that shows the donations/tips that user has MADE.

Additionally, a shield that displays how much a user has donated could become very popular in forum sigs and bring a lot more traffic to your service.

Heh, no, I mean that I develop things but haven't released anything to the wild. My last big project was almost 10 years ago, and it was just a home-built internet site that had maybe 10k users at it's peak... which wasn't too bad for 2003!

I've been in the private sector since then, but I've been itching to build something new and exciting.

I've been lurking on the forums for a while, but didn't even realize that I needed to establish myself on this board before I could reply.

I went today to link my BTCJam account (used for P2P lending) and realized that I couldn't post. Oops!

Well, about myself... I was interested in BitCoin since it was a few cents per coin, but never really did much. I had a few hundred at one point, but just donated them to various causes. I kind of wish I saved them!

I'm working on a startup right now that's based on BitCoin but it probably will be a few months until it goes live.

I'm in Austin TX at the moment, but I'm likely to move to Central America (Guatemala) in the next year if the wife gets a job she's working towards. My hope is that my bitcoin related business will be established by then so I can live off of the meager profits. I need to also establish myself on LocalBitcoins. I might be able to be the market-leader in Guatemala for bitcoin transactions.
