They don't buy it at original price and sell it much cheaper. They sell to have profit.
It can be any promotion or promotion code that was before (sometimes free) so they have profit to sell at that price. It can be cheating method too.

Depends , if you see cheap Spotify , Netflix , Origin , Steam accounts and people sell them in bulk then yes most of them are cracked which means they don't actually own them but stolen .
If you see gift cards (usually Starbucks giftcards) with so cheap price you should know that they are carded (bought using stolen credit card) , same goes for VPS if they are too cheap and in bulk then they are most likely cracked , So you should use your brain that's all

Often people when complete surveys in many website they get awarded with gift cards, mostly amazon gift cards. But when it is no use for them they try to sell even for 70-90% so it's legal. There are also for 50% but take at your own risk.

may be he buy more and get discount
so he can sell it cheap

[altcoinhosting]

a lot of times, it seems like vendors are even upfront about the fact they're selling hacked accounts...

Anonimity is like a cozy blanket for those wanting to sell illegal stuff...

Yes it is known that discount is applied in bulk orders, but i saw Starbucks which was sold at 20%, i think in this case is not about discount. There has happened another thing which is probably stolen/hacked/cracked most of the time.

[dre1982]

Mostly the make the price cheap to be sure they got is sold.

Better a low price then no price. I have also a account with $100 for sale for 0.2 BTC. If I ask a higher price, I know it will never be sold.

Most of cheep things in digital goods forum are gift cards or they got them from old promotion or discount or free trial

[Amph]

it depend if the thing they are selling is something that can mek profit on its own, if this is the case they can afford to lose versus their initial cost and gain something back

also there is no guaranteed that everyone in that section is actually taking profit from these goods

I think this covers a lot of it.  If you see huge percent off chances are it was gotten in not the best way.   When they can offer a 15 dollar service for 50 cents you know something is up though.

So just go into it knowing what your getting.  I would avoid gift cards as they can be revoked and btc transactions cannot. By price you know what your getting.  If it sounds to good to be true chances is it is.

Exactly this! If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is. So chances are you will probably end up screwed. I have bought once some Microsoft Office keys. There was a huge discount. They worked for a week and that was it.

Lesson learned. After this, I barely ever visit this section. You do increase, our chances not to get screwed if you buy from accounts with good trust rating, but these accounts are not in majority in this section.

Yes, that is the general rule of thumb for buying digital goods. However, just because you think a product is worth $XX amount of money doesn't mean that it is. Many sellers often get their goods for extremely cheap in ways that aren't really illegal, but are just not very known. Then, they can afford to sell them for $X.

Many things in digital goods section are not legit per say, like all sorts of accounts and memberships, and some are aquired as freebies and then sold out later on here.

Also, there are some users that have accounts on many other forum sites, who then make sort of arbitrage by buying things there and selling them here, or just making
selling threads here and when contacted they then buy it from alternate forum for a cheaper price.

I wondered that myself when I see people selling very cheap (like dirt cheap) MS Keys, Antivirus keys etc. and I came to the conclusion that they're using illegal means to acquire those and they might work for a small period of time but they will stop working when the software agencies identify them and then the money you spent on buying those is a waste, which is why I have never purchased any sort of keys or other digital goods such as AGCs because you can never know whether or not they were acquired legally and you can have repercussions if they are later found to be bought using stolen CCs etc.

Same goes for other stuff, they're selling them that cheap because they didn't bought those themselves but stole from others and it is not recommended to buy stolen items.

I don't know if I would agree with this.  Look at accounts in digital section.   Specifically services like netflix, etc.   There is NO POSSIBLE way they are able to get at prices listed for some unknown magic cheap buying method.

A lot of the accounts for services specifically are gotten in not legal ways, in my view.   But buyers do know this when getting at those extremely low price.

[prodigy8]

I think first of all you should research a bit about the product that you want to buy, if there are chances that it can be bought illegally then ask the seller how he gets, secondly search for reviews/vouches and decided yourself at the end.

[Kprawn]

I know some of them sell OEM stuff, that is not supposed to be re-sold without the product. I also bought harddrives bundled with Anti-virus software which I would never have used, because I already had AV

software installed, but I decided not to sell it, for this same reason. It just feel like a total waste, when you buy these products and you get the "included software" and you never going to use it. You pay for it, why

can you no re-sell it? Some people do not care and sell these type of digital goods for very cheap prices. 

[Xialla]

well,

*"random" steam games are usually from humble bundle so they are cheap because of this. (and sellers breaching humble bundle TOS)
*various accounts (typically Spotify) are created with hacked CC
*half of the stuff in section is illegal, black hat or tricky

I have nothing against it, but be sure that you fully understands offers and what may be behind. not everything is so crystal clear how it looks like from first view.

Well i just saw this post and makes me thing how is this possible 20$ for a 100$ giftcard https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1172229.0 I don't think that this are claimed in legal way.
