Will you buy this?
At least they respond quickly to emails, got an answer after just 2 minutes.
I asked for the order of the keys since I want to know which key belongs to which game:
We did it as we are looking to prevent from reselling games in the bundles.
If you still want to know the order, it will have to wait for tomorrow as we are unable to provide that detail on the first 24 hours due to the agreement we maid with the developers.

That is the biggest pile of bullshit I've ever seen. XD

How exactly would that stop reselling of keys? If you already own a game, it tells you what it is... so anyone looking to resell these keys would just have to buy one bundle to keep, activate everything, then all following bundles could be identified easily.
Seems to me that this just adds hassle for anyone who would throw a left over key to a friend or whatever. Doesn't stop reselling one bit.

Or just buy one bundle, put up all the keys, saying "buy purchasing you will randomly get one of the following games..."

Their Twitter link at the bottom includes several links to Kinguin. Plus they already ran out of keys for some games and have doubled the price.
Super legit.

Just saw this bundle and thought: "Are they kidding?" Probably one of the worst ways to start selling bundles. But what do you expect from Kinguin?
Btw: Have you already mentioned that Brilliant Bob, Royal Defense and Fort Defense (Royal Defense and Fort Defense even by the giveaways4ever, which they link as facebook and twitter) were free, too?.

Sorry, just out of curiosity.. I'd swear I looked everywhere and I can't find any proof that this site is created by Kinguin, could you post some details, what makes you believe it is actually made by Kinguin? Thanks!

Would rather stay with IG/HB/Bundle Stars etc.

This seems rather shady. Look at the background on their main page. While they are not saying outright that Dishonored will be part of anything, by using it as the picture they have to advertise their site, they are implying things. And there's a direct link to Kinguin (one of the grey market sites) on that page.
Comment has been collapsed.
I just activated all my keys. I don't know if they will be in the same order for everyone or if they are randomized, but for me the order was:
I did not get Urban Legends which is still listed on their site, but I got Siege Wars instead even though they removed it shortly before I purchased the bundle. Since I had neither of the two before I don't really care...
Comment has been collapsed.
Apparently they meant to remove Urban Legends all along. This is the response I got:
Oh, seems like we had a problem and accidently left Urban Legends instead of leaving Siege Wars on the page.
Here's your code, sorry for the issues!
XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
Hoping to have and see you as a buyer again soon,
Bundle Kings

Comparing your list to mine I got:
3rd Game: Wind Of Luck: Arena (Caribbean Captain DLC)
11th Game: Vapour: Part 1
instead of this ones you got:
Chronicles of the Witches and Warlocks
Of Guards and Thieves
It looks like it is a bundle that changes over time.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well that's garbage ... how is this your launch bundle? And they are gonna be selling it for a month?Well at least in that respect they are making it so you only have to update once a month about them, but this is a pretty crap plan ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes and they had the special price for what like 3-4 hours, seems like they decided they weren't making enough money and just change their mind, then I refresh the page and one game suddenly changes, very professional of them, that's just ridiculous.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi, we didn't expect such a huge success from our first bundle.
We are working as fast as possible to figure it out and will send you the right keys within the next 20 minutes.
Please accept our sincere apology.
Regards,
Bundle Kings
I guess due to their success, they might have decided to increase the price in hopes that people would still buy the bundle?

Rachel, I know you try to be impartial but from reading some things it seems like this site and Giveaways4ever are somewhat shady and dishonest. If you haven't done so already I would like to throw the suggestion out there that you consider suspending reporting on any bundles from these 2 sites indefinitely. Something is definitely not right here.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes I have already decided that these two sites should not be reported on
However I wanted to leave this one up to show people how shady they were. If I just said they were shady, nobody would believe me. But if someone were to stumble across this thread and read the comments, they would realize that the two sites aren't very honest. That is why I closed the other thread a long time ago. But imo, people have the right to know. I don't think you would have known how shady this site is unless you happened to open this thread and read the comments. Had I deleted this thread or closed it immediately, people wouldn't know about it.
And tbh, when I first posted this, I wasn't aware of anything fishy going on. I was curious why they looked similar to giveaways4ever, but I didn't realize there would be so much else going on besides that. Their thread got taken down by Reddit two hours after they made a post, and by that time, people here on SG had already expressed their suspicions and negative sentiments towards it.
Thank you though for bringing it up.
