It's still against Humble Bundle ToS... I know no one ever pays attention to that crap, but it seems wrong because it's for charity... eh, whatever. No idea how they do it without going bankrupt though

You've been on this forum for quite a while now...you should know to use the search option before starting a thread exactly like others...

edit: nvm

But i don't know honestly.. i doubt there's an exploit, maybe some people can't buy TF keys for some reason? and this is a way to get their hands on them through other channels

I guess its online money laundering.. BTA is fixed at 6$, if you pay less its something illegal. Point!

I think it's just some kind of bitcoin bussiness, they probably somehow getting them for free and buying the BTA bundles. Don't know how.

2 of those links you provided are from the same guy and he is going through the wringer right now in another thread for a bad deal.

Most legit bundle sellers charge more than that. Frankly, if I dont buy the bundle myself I go with 1 or 2 people I always deal with that have a clear profit margin. Non-BTA for 1 key is pure profit really, but you can find a few that will do a non-BTA for 4 ref which is very fair IMO. 3 keys for BTA is also profiting, but not by a whole lot depending on the bundle.

The guys selling it for 2 keys (BTA) are few and far between and my guess is something could be up. You're assuming this kind of thing is widespread, but its not at all. I think you're reading into it a bit much as its more often the opposite of what you're asking. Most are definitely profiting from selling BTA bundles for keys and ask for more than 2. You're picking out very isolated cases.

I was gonna get the non-bta hothead for 1 key (i'm without credit card right now, so all i have is spare steam wallet), but the trader account seems too new for me.
