Hi everyone, I bought a new Nvidia GPU and they're currently giving away The Division with it. Since I don't care about the game, I'm willing to trade it for Rise of the Tomb Raider, or 29€ which is how much ROTR keys cost online! I should get the voucher tomorrow, I accept paypal payments so that we're both safe. Anyone interested hit me up on Steam!

Best way to get scammed =/ trades are visible even to people who are not signed in to SG. Soon you get many invites on steam and if you are as stupid as I was few months back, you lose your key and try not to cry very much :(

If you use the search bar under +New Discussion button, you can find helpful notes from other threads.

By the way, If anyone randomly added you on Steam, first get sure about his Steam profile and the Steamgifts account linked to it.

Sell it on King Peguin. The voucher is around 32€ there.
fees and all you can get your money and but rise there too.

But payments take 30 days - not sure for community offers

Just sell it somewhere on the internet- Kinguin, Ebay, G2A etc. Otherwise you might get scammed.

I figured that's the best thing to do. Might aswell pay that 10% fee on those websites rather than losing the game and the money

Wait, how does that website work? I noticed his latest trades were years ago, could this profile have been stolen?

It's not the first time i see you linking it, are u manually checking or you're using a plugin that shows if a user doesn't have an activated game?

Use that link I posted and change the name to the SG username you want to check.

I know.

But you're manually checking & posting the link after, or is there a plugin that does that for you?

Ah yes, it is manual indeed.

Posted this for someone else before, might be useful to have a look:


Checking:
1).Always double check the trade feedback (e.g http://www.steamgifts.com/user/maildave/feedback) + the steam profile that it links to, and the person you are talking to on steam (ask them to post on ur thread to double check too). [Normally +100 rep and above rarely scams, +50/-0 rep and above are decent and you can probably trust still, +25/-0 rep and above are still okay, anything below +25/-0 try to do more checks and always check anyone with -rep and take extra care]

2).Check steamrep.com (not so accurate sometimes, as only confirmed scammers, with who had done a few scams are shown there), this site shows confirmed scammers who you should never ever trade with (if he is shown as a scammer on the site)

3).Check if the person is in any rep boost groups (most of the time those who are in rep boost groups on steam (e.g of rep boost groups https://www.google.com.sg/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=%2Brep%20group) scams when they have the chance)

4).Never just go 1st based on steam profile reps/ inventory alone (as steam profile reps can be easily manipulated, as mentioned in point3).

Trading:
1).Normally most trades done here are game keys for cards, refs, other game keys, csgo/tf2 keys, so most of the time 1 person needs to go 1st. As a standard rule of thumb, normally the lower rep on steamgifts always goes 1st. (Unless both players are around the same rep) (Of course you could ask another person with higher rep to go 1st, and some times they would if the item is of low value)

2).Try to build up some rep by trading lower value stuff (e.g bundled game for cards) or safer trades like gifts for keys. (At the start it might be difficult to find trades without going 1st due to low rep, so I would suggest you slowly build up rep this way 1st, before selling higher value items/games to avoid getting scammed/ do not want to go 1st)

3).Sometimes trades might take a few days to a few weeks (with constant bumping a few times a day everytime u can, you can bump every hour) before people will post on your thread (if your trade is not super value or quick sell, i.e very cheap compared to market), [There are many people who only look through the 1st page of the trading page, so they only see ur trade when you bump it]
So it might be good to search around other people's trades to see if there are any trades you might want to do with others if you want a higher chance to trade away your game.
