It is actually quite easy. Seller doesn't need access to your Steam/Uplay login information. They log into your AMD Rewards account and activate the code and choose the games you want. The buyer can then log in and link their Steam/Uplay accounts.you amd rewards guys should tell people in your offers that redemption isnt that easy as amd asks for sign in/redeem through steam
so either teamviewer on your system or username/password for steam from buyer is needed
would be fair to tell people that before they pay maybe?

Yes it was and thanks again Aircobra.It is actually quite easy. Seller doesn't need access to your Steam/Uplay login information. They log into your AMD Rewards account and activate the code and choose the games you want. The buyer can then log in and link their Steam/Uplay accounts.
I have an AMD Code for Choose 2 games out of 3 & looking for 60$ Paypal. I can activate in the account as well with my hardware.Yes it was and thanks again Aircobra.
Its basically creating an AMD account, then letting the person who is going to redeem get into that account. You don't like to steam or anything until after the redemption are added to your account. Therefore you can change the AMD log in credentials before you even link your steam account to it as a security measure.
aircobra offer was $60 for 3 games...I have an AMD Code for Choose 2 games out of 3 & looking for 60$ Paypal. I can activate in the account as well with my hardware.
the buyer can login if he buys BOTH games, people here selling RE2 onlyIt is actually quite easy. Seller doesn't need access to your Steam/Uplay login information.

Actually, this is CAG, not SteamTrades. I'd trust 90% of people in here, but I also let people log into my amd account on SteamTrades if their rep was high enough.the buyer can login if he buys BOTH games, people here selling RE2 only
so you will sell me RE2 and give me access to whole AMD account with two games on?
forget it)
selling games individual ends in trouble as you need to go the way i told you
on german site of buenosdeals code price dropped to 20 euro/25 dollar for both games/whole code since sellers figured out what trouble amd made them
summary:
selling/buying an amd account is a way, selling/buying one of the games only is crap

If you constructed your posts properly, it would be easier to understand what you are trying to say. Even if you are only selling one of the games (I've only sold the 2 bundle and then 2 individual Division 2 codes that were only for D2), you can still do it as I laid out.the buyer can login if he buys BOTH games, people here selling RE2 only

that's paranoia lolah and as we all know amd doesnt want them codes to be traded
so split the 2 games on 2 buyers makes two different login locations and two different accounts to be linked to (steam)
wouldnt surprise me amd monitors that and then asks for the bill and sheet of promo code or even more

And then some get pissy when you're like uhh.. i dunno.. $0.50? LolCan we make it a requirement for people to at least list a starting price for items? I’m so sick of messaging people about a game and have them “please make me an offer”. I’ll either ignore then, or make a fair offer only for them to basically want almost MSRP. It’s such a waste of time for everyone involved.
Some people are not worth dealing with, they will be holding their inventory forever if they don't budge. Supply is not exactly low in number on most games. If we can't get basic formatting of posts (no crazy colors/huge fonts) as a requirement, we're not going to get this lol.Can we make it a requirement for people to at least list a starting price for items?

God these two things would be great to have. As well as some kind of default price.It would also be helpful to post your country so people know if there is going to be any paypal fees or not.
I don't have any problem with people that don't post price (of course I am one of those people, I only price some of my games). If you don't like dealing with people that don't have pricing, just don't message them. A lot of people also get publicly attacked for their prices (which is against forum rules) further discouraging people from posting their (likely) unrealistic prices. If you don't like it, just don't buy it. The market will take care of itself.Can we make it a requirement for people to at least list a starting price for items?

Eh, avoiding progression because “we can just ignore the problem” isn’t much of a solution to bettering the thread. Also, I’m really not sure half the games I’m interested in until I see them. As far as it working itself out, this thread alone is 4 years old and a lot of these problems are still there.I don't have any problem with people that don't post price (of course I am one of those people, I only price some of my games).

You can also do your own post with the games you want to buy and how much you're willing to offer. That way if someone is willing to sell you a game at the price you want, you don't have to message anyone.
I wish they would also make it a requirement to delete things that have been sold, from old posts. I have accidentally left a few things on before, only to find out later and go back to delete them. But, searching is difficult when you have people post their stuff many times only to leave all their sold items in them and in multiple posts. Adding the word "sold" or using strike through the text still allows them to show up in search results. It would be nice if everyone had a single post. Maybe mods could go through and purge all of the older posts (I think this is in the OP)?Can we make it a requirement for people to at least list a starting price for items?

In this thread, each CAG has one post slot. You maintain your list and that is it.
Mods can easily maintain this list by clicking on the post count and seeing if anyone has more than 1 post count and deleting the others.
Yeah, that's years out of date. The intention was that you'd have a "trade list" on your profile and clicking it would take you to your post in this thread. For obvious reasons, a forum is not a good way to implement such a system, and that didn't work out. It's basically a free-for-all now.Edit:
From the OP:
I dono man, I think if a post is decently old, it’s going to be common sense that the price for Half Life 2 isn’t $40 anymore. /sYeah, that's years out of date.

For obvious reasons, a forum is not a good way to implement such a system, and that didn't work out. It's basically a free-for-all now.
Just in case we implement a 'must list prices' requirement for this thread, feel free to copy-paste the following to ensure compliance:
Listing prices is stupid. Prices change hundreds of times every month. It's not remotely realistic to keep up with market values. If you want to buy something, I'm going to go to G2A and determine the market value of the item at the moment. If your offer is fair or reasonably discounted I'll be happy to trade, if it's wildly lowballed I'll probably block you for wasting my time. Easy peasy.Code:- $12,000 OBO.
People offering to buy something in particular, especially something that has large volume like a recent Humble bundlee, should probably mention what they are offering for their own benefit to attract offers. But people listing what items they have on hand generally will have that list up for months while the market values of those items wildly fluctuate. It's a waste of time for sellers to list prices given that situation. There simply aren't enough buyers to get your item sold fast enough for the pricing effort to make sense.
If this were like Steam Community market then you could put in buy and sell orders just like in a stock market with time periods on the ticket validity, that would be awesome. But it's not like that, it's a random forum post with the most janky format ever.
Totally agree sadly there aren’t any mods here to do anything.Exactly. This thread is becoming annoying.
This thread needs some god damn rules. Any of the sellers who would whine about it is probably not worth dealing with, anyway.
- Too many lists that aren't in alphabetical order.
- Dumb formatting. No, randomly capitalizing some letters and adding colors does not make your post stand out, it just makes me less likely to look at your list.
- Lists with no prices. Seriously, if you don't post prices, I immediately assume you want an unreasonable amount of money and move on.
I sell at drastically lower prices than anyone lists or offers on this board. Which is why prices are pointless. I sell for reasonable prices based on market value as apparent by looking at sites like G2A. If you don't want to make me a reasonable offer, then don't.I dono man, I think if a post is decently old, it’s going to be common sense that the price for Half Life 2 isn’t $40 anymore. /s
If you list prices and most of your stuff doesn’t sell, you cleary want too much and aren’t going to be pushing your catalog anyways, and are likely going to be the seller asking for offers and then declining them anyways.
If you think it’s hard work update prices, you either have too much inventory (for a reason), or you don’t want to put any effort into selling your stuff. I really think the reality of it is you can only expect so much work from a buyer these days, they have too many options and will just move on. Selling is hard work in every situation, buying shouldnt also have to be.
Personally, If I see a list and there’s no prices, I don’t even bother. Maybe im in the minority, but it seems as if people with no prices listed tend to have a lot more stock than those who do. Can’t be a coincidence.
But who really cares, it’s obviously not going to change anyone’s mind one way or another. People will and won’t post prices, it’s the way it is when (like you said) the formatting of it all is so bad.
Sorry but “prices are pointless” is the stupidest thing I’ve ever read. Did you even think before you wrote that?I sell at drastically lower prices than anyone lists or offers on this board. Which is why prices are pointless. I sell for reasonable prices based on market value as apparent by looking at sites like G2A. If you don't want to make me a reasonable offer, then don't.
Noing shit people with more stock don't list prices, because it's harder to update everything with prices. I have lots of stock because I buy bundles and don't activate games I'm not playing.
Asking for people to improve the rules of this board is idiotic. The whole forum is aed way to list and sell items, and there's no way to fix it because it's a forum thread. End of discussion. We don't need endless posts "POST PRICES PEOPLE" several times a week.
