[H] 100's of Steam games (as global region gifts, not keys), [W] Bitcoins

[zvs]

Most of the stuff is gone, so just editing it all out for now.  Maybe sometime in future I'll try again here.

It was maybe $100-$150 worth of stuff I sold for bitcoins, which was some drop in bucket compared to all the stuff I sold on g2a... but, then, g2a steals so much money, it could be worth it.

I probably need to make some minimum buy order next time though.  =p

$5 for portal 2? Pm me if you can do this. You're legendary, so I guess I'll send first. Sorry if you consider this offer as a lowball, I purchased a 90% off portal 2 code yesterday but it expired 5 fucking minutes after I bought it...

It's not a bad offer, given these 90% and 75% coupons that exist... hmm... ah, what do people use to price bitcoin now, anyway?  I guess I'll just stick w/ what I know and use the values I see on bitcoincharts (specifically coinbase).  It looks like spot price is $500, but I wouldn't be comfortable valuing it that high, given that $50 increase in the last, uh, 24 hours.  I used to go buy '24 hr moving average, or spot price, whichever is lowest'.  So I guess my valuation right at this moment would be around $475.

I suppose in general, I wouldn't want an offer significantly lower than the price on www.g2a.com/r/hoovering (ah, just had to pimp that referral link.  sadly, it has only hoovered me about 3 euros in 6 months); for those ppl out there that don't care about me being homeless and starving and feel like making me cry, you can visit via www.g2a.com instead.   And a quick guide to g2a buying:    don't use selected offer (and it's best in general to buy from sellers with 200-30k transactions, as they'll generally be the ones that respond to resolution center complaints, vs these bots with 100k+ that just ignore).  Also turn off 'G2A shield', first on the purchase page itself, and then they'll try to sneak it in again on payment options (dirty ratbastards).  Then when you see something at $5, you'll actually pay $5, instead of some massively inflated amt from their chicanery.  oh, they also do charge some fee for paypal, which I think is against the paypal ToS, but bitcoins is 0%!

Anyway, I see the price there at $8.06.  assuming I listed at, say, 7.95, and wasn't price matched instantly by some bot (which 99% of the time will get the sale, cause people are dumb and use 'selected offer'), then I'd get about $6.50 or so after they jacked all their fees.   I've had fair success selling portal 2 on there, & that current price is around what it usually rests at if there hasn't been a Steam sale in a while,  re: $7 - $9 range.

now with all that jibber jabber being said & given that I said my valuation of bitcoin was $475, I'd take 0.0116 bitcoins for it, or ~$5.51.  Would be $5.80 if you went by the current spot price.

eh, actually, i'm fine with $5, since it'd be my first time selling for bitcoin, rather than on g2a.  I'd still want to value bitcoins at $475, but I suppose we could round that 0.010526316 to 0.0105.

Can send the 0.0105 to 1Zevusze7BjTpp4srJhx4zkRBxpbgwU4A ... I'll be here til at least 10am UTC (another 3 hrs or so).  Have client loaded now so I'll see any transaction.

Send me a PM on here with an email address to send gift link to after I receive the bitcoins if you're fine w/ that.  (I'll also just PM you this whole mess, but post this anyway.  who knows, perhaps it'll be the glorious start of a successful G2A Hoovering™ campaign)

yes!

OK, you've got a deal! I just send you a PM confirming that I'm going first. I'll also send you my email. If you want, I can add you on steam.

[Monnt]

Sent! You can find the transaction here - https://blockchain.info/tx/ff88a149657bd70dedcaa08f24759e50fa8bfe1c63dcf412966f26c1c98a85b6

[zvs]

all done!

....... if anyone else is interested in something, PM me as I don't check the bitcointalk forum very frequently.  'bout to hit the sack, so probably won't see any possible new requests until 8-11pm utc saturday.

[Monnt]

Oh, just wanna know, do you have half life or are you able to get it? I've blindly played through 2, ep1 and ep2 without even playing their predecessor. Silly me

[Decoded]

Oh, id like to buy a copy of portal 2, if I may? My brother's inquire about it, just waiting for you to come back online. ($4, hint hint, nudge nudge)

[udet4food]

Oh, id like to buy a copy of portal 2, if I may? My brother's inquire about it, just waiting for you to come back online. ($4, hint hint, nudge nudge)

I can offer to buy $6 for a copy of portal 2.

Aw, that's really not fair. I'm trying to make a deal here, don't barge in and overbid me I can offer 0.01 btc

But that is only around $5.30 USD. And I am offering $6 USD, which is around 0.012 BTC. Of course, this won't matter if OP has two or more copies of Portal 2.

Yay. Op hasnt contacted me yet. You?

Nope. Though it's interesting because OP was online an hour ago... I'll have to wait.

Just asking if you have stardew valley in your list will buy a piece if you have one in stock.

ah, no, no stardew valley

re: portal 2's, i sold the other copy to udet4food

i don't read the replies here, just PMs.   sometimes.  it occasionally takes me a day or two.

i pretty much gave up on mass selling those games though (through means other than g2a/ebay) and am just gonna list them on the auction sites

[ralle14]

Ill just buy a copy of shellshock live and bloody trapland if they are still for sale. If you still have a copy of portal 2 will also buy it.

[zvs]

oh, wow, thought those bloody traplands were just about worthless, but it's showing some $2.73 on g2a.

i got another coupon for portal 2 earlier today, so used that.  it was only 75% off instead of 90% off, but with norway store prices it still makes it pretty cheap.  EU is about 5-10% higher than US, which is about 15% higher than Canada, which  is about 5% higher than Norway and NEw Zealand.    fun facts of steam

anyway, if I went by g2a prices, i could expect to get around $14 or $15 after fees.

i base bitcoin price on bitstamp, cause that's the only exchange i'm on and what i'd have to use if i wanted to convert it to straight usd.  is $580 right now.

last portal 2 game i sold for $6.25,  which is probably still a bit low, but we can use that.   i can send the gift fine, but it's not tradeable until june 8th, if that matters.  shellshock live and bloody trapland are both tradeable (ive had them over a month).

anyway, portal 2 for $6.25, bloody trapland for $1.75, & call shellshock live $5.  then we can do a fancy 75 cent discount for 3 games and come to $12.

i'm more interested in someone buying my region locked games though;

Dead Island Definitive Collection
Killer is Dead - Nightmare Edition
Dead Island: Game of the Year Edition
Dead Island Riptide Complete Edition

they are a pita to sell.

anyway, i'll email you the details.  but in general, i'm not paying a lot of attention to this thread anymore, as i've finished making all the links for my gifts & just need to list them on g2a now.  ofc, if anyone else wanted something, it could be possible

[xinzark]

I also need the copy of Portal 2 and RC Simulation 2.0
Let me know if you have and how much they cost

PM is better, don't read this thread so often.

RC Simulation, I'd have to go with the current lowest global Steam price, which is $12.24 right now (Norway price).  It's $14.99 in US store.  $12.37 on G2A.  $17.04 on Steam for people in EU, who are probably the folks I'd end up selling to if I put it on G2A, lol.

I'd take $10 in bitcoins for it, though.  If you're interested, PM me.

ah... and I'm out of Portal 2 now.

I'll update list with a few other titles I found while digging around my alts also.  getting ready to list them on g2a, but haven't yet (just got all the links written down, took hours, hah)

[zvs]

Some of those gifts are gone now, maybe a dozen or so.

Anyone wants to make a request, PM me and I can see if I still have any.

There are a few things I'd like to get rid of;

Toren Deluxe Edition
Killer is Dead - Nightmare Edition
Dead Island: Game of the Year Edition
Dead Island Riptide Complete Edition
StarDrive 2: Deluxe Edition
Icy
Cradle

those are all CD keys, not gifts.  I should have the cheapest listing on g2a for them right now, but I'd sell them for cheaper than they are on g2a ofc.

Killer is Dead & the two Dead Island's are available everywhere but Europe (which includes Turkey... but doesn't include serbia or montenegro).   (ed: fixed to make it easier to understand)   i.e.  no countries (or principalities, except Gibraltar, I think) in europe can activate them except serbia and montenegro.  they're fine in south america, asia, north america, russia, whatever else.
