Really awesome buying experience. It was cheap, fast, and smooth --- seller was a real pro and handled the 2FA process discreetly. Great service and I wouldn't have it ANY other way. :D

I provided 30 days free insurance although it was a terrible mistake since I wasn't aware funds would be withheld for 30 days. On top of that, it will also take 2-3 days to process. WHEN I TRY TO CONTACT SOMEONE FOR HELP I GOT THE EQUIVLINT OF PISS OFF

If you do get scammed you better have a bunch of evidence, screenshots and recordings, logs and so on. Otherwise your going to have one hell of a time getting a refund.

Tip for consumers:
Avoid this seller. Use G2G instead

It is only $30, but they will take it with total impunity.

TLDR: Due to lack of visa/mc payments which are disabled for UK, had to resort to USDC payment, where the transaction is public and anyone (me/them/yourself) can see the money is already in their account.

I have been using PA for a long while now without problems until recently.

They, for some reason, disabled visa/mastercard payments. (Apparently there is a country filter according do their help pages and I am in UK!)

With the remaining methods I used USDC/coinbase which is available on their system as an ecommerce account. The transaction is confirmed many hours ago but the system still does not show this.

Support says and I am quoting here: "your payment is not capturing by our system due to the payment is not authorizing by Coinbase yet" which is ridiculous, because as anyone who is dealing especially trading with crypto on a commercial level should know there is no such thing as "authorise"

The information is all public, I've sent them the transaction ID's and screenshots, which clearly shows the money is in their account.

Thank you for the positive feedback, David. Buyers don't pay any fees at PlayerAuctions, and the fee you spoke of is possibly from the payment portal you used. These fees are naturally there for their processing service coverage. If you have any other concerns, please feel free to use the Q&A feature here at SiteJabber. Thanks again!

Short version:
1) Sent Money via Skrill
2) Their system denied that money arrived
3) Contacted Skrill + Bank and confirmed that money was indeed sent/arrived
4) Contacted playerauctions support - was given a computer generated reply after 3 days that was COMPLETELY irrelevant.
5) Sent another message - No reply, it has been 1 week and all I got was 1 stupid reply which basically told me to pay twice

Long Version:

I tried to buy a league of legends account and I paid using Skrill.
The transaction on skrill went through YET playerauctions claimed that it failed. I contacted my bank and also skrill who both confirmed that the transaction did indeed happen and the money was sent so I do not know what is wrong on their side.

I contacted playerauctions support (which took me ages to find) to see what's up. I explained things clearly and supplemented it with proof. Took them 3 days to answer and the message that I got was ridiculous.
They did NOT even read my message and told me to make another payment using GoCoin...

Utterly disgusting, like heck I'm going to pay twice for something which I should have received the first time I paid. They won't even acknowledge my support ticket or even say a thing about the first payment.

Decided to post here because in 1 whole week I have only gotten 1 reply which was computer generated (EXACT same reply that Erwin T. Got) and totally irrelevant.

Would refrain from using, number of 1 star reviews is absurd and I am not the only one who has gotten his money ripped off by this disgusting site.

Edit: (>The problem was solved, but its so annoying the validation system)

*I made a payment by a digital card (cause my physical card has not printed the 16 digits) and I sent them photos of the physical card, the digital card generated by the bank app, a screenshot of the payment receipt, My ID, a selfie with my ID (that I had to take like 10 times cause they didn't like any of them)
And it was not enough for them
They keep asking for a photo with the last 4 digits of the Pysical card when I sent them like 3 times photos of my card explaining that my card has not printed numbers because the card is designed without numbers
And they can't verify is my identity (despite It has printed my name and i sent them the payment receipt and i sent them my ID, the generated digital card, etc.)

Hi Mario,

I checked and your order is now completely verified; thank you very much for your time.

I am very sorry for the inconvenience. I know our agent asked twice even after you explained that your card does not have printed details on it. That part was our fault and I really apologize. The next reply by our agent was corrected and we asked the correct document, which you have already provided us. Thank you again for that.

Regards,
Richard

Hi Pedro,

I am unable to see the video, but if you can send me a message with your PlayerAuctions username, and the Order ID, I can check out which "code" you are referring to and see what I can do for you.

We receive many support tickets on a daily basis, so yes, people are able to raise their concerns and we do address them. If there are bugs, we will need to ask for more details so that our technical team can replicate the errors and attempt to fix them.

I hope this clarifies, and I hope to receive the details of your concerns soon!

Thanks,
Lei

Sitejabber for Business

Gain trust and grow your business with customer reviews.

From the business

PlayerAuctions runs a marketplace for buying and selling characters, virtual goods and virtual currency from massively multiplayer online games (MMOGs).

Business History

PlayerAuctions was started in 1999 by a group of gamers in the states. It was one of the first player to player marketplaces around, becoming a famous hub for earlier games such as Ultima, Diablo 2, and Everquest. It survived on a small scale for years and grew entirely organically through word of mouth, until PlayerAuctions was acquired by Itemmania in Korea.

Being rebuilt from the ground up with proprietary risk management systems, and investment meant to provide a stronger support network for gamers, PlayerAuctions was re-launched in 2008 with offices in Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Korea. Since that time, PlayerAuctions has supported hundreds of games and activities within the wider gaming industry.

At the end of 2013 underwent a structure change to a Product structure which has shifted development focus to an agile development system which resulted in many product expansions in 2014 including Gaming Accessories, CD Key Sales, Cosplay, Trading Cards, and Software Downloads. PlayerAuctions also opened a new support center in Manila 2014 to directly manage and control the quality of services rendered to its users.
