Hey guys,
Do you use "Comparing prices" websites to buy games ? I don't mean to buy from them, i mean take a look at them to compare prices then buying games from CD KEY stores, Any idea ?

*if you use any other website, pls tell us about it, i really appreciate it

Thanks

I use IsThereAnyDeal and Enhanced Steam to compare prices. How are the ones you mentioned Price comparison sites and not just keyshops ?

Those sites Will always be cheaper because those are Grey market sites.

I see. So far I've only used G2A for grey market price comparison but since every seller there has it's own storefront I think the markup might be higher so I will look into it.

They are price comparison sites. Just take a look. They compare the so-called "grey market" key shops which are ignored by ITAD and Enhanced Steam.

I see. Thanks for explaining. I've heard of some of those sites before but I never looked into it. I'm aware that grey market key shops are just as legit as SteamTrades or Barter but considering my backlog and how many great games I can get for cheap from Bundles sites or official / semi-official resellers I never felt the need.

No problem! I definitely see your point, but like I wrote elsewhere, sometimes I get AAA games there, since they have the lowest prices and I don't care about the officiality of the source, so to say.

This as well. I prefer to give my business to legit resellers.

The only time I deal with grey market key shops is when a game I was interested in is pulled from Steam and I'm trying to find a copy before they're all gone.

Would you kindly turn off that bug you have installed in my brain. I feel like it kind of invades my privacy... Plus there's stuff in there you seriously don't want to know :D

That's the only time I use ### as well because the prices are much more reasonable than what traders ask for when a game gets removed.

Sorry, once it's installed it's permanent.
You should have paid attention to the fine prints when you signed your soul away for a couple of games.

I have an extension that shows me the current lowest price on the Steam shop page, linking to IsThereAnyDeal. :)

Looks great but having it run at computer startup is a complete deal-breaker for me 😆

ITAD lists only "clean" shops, so that's where I usually go. I don't usually buy from key shops, I just wait for the next sale if I want to save a few €.

ITAD, then allkeyshop, rarely gamekeyfinder. Still prefer official resellers.

I just check SteamDB for lower price history before buying. Never used grey market before.

Only thing I use grey markets for are Windows OEM keys. If I want cheaper games, I either wait for an amazing sale, bundle, or get review copies.
