How legit is this site? Not a bad price for Fallout 4 on there, and that's a pretty good price for what you were looking to get.

Bookmarking it. Thank you! Will look again but is it a retail site like GreenManGaming or is it a reseller with merchants like G2A.com and Kinguin.net?

Ended up buying this exact DLC 3 pack so that I can also get the Special Edition for free. Thanks again for the link to the site.

This is an unauthorized CD key reseller. We highly recommended that you do not purchase game keys off this site.

Thanks for the tip on keyradar.com but is it always so strict? It states the greenmangaming has had issues and I've never heard anything bad about GMG.

GMG had a big issue with Witcher 3, where they were selling it cheaper than anyone else and the publisher got upset and said that GMG wasn't authorized to be selling those keys.
Everyone kind of assumed they fell off the back of a Russian truck, but nobody ever actually proved anything.

Fell off the back of a Russian truck. Nice. And I had no idea of any of that. I missed out on an interesting story it would seem.

GMG has had a lot of issues. Ignoring the fact that they've been accused by several publishers of selling unlicensed keys, they're known for rude support, not offering refunds or replacements for games they mislabeled the platform on, not offering support for games past the first week of purchase (despite it not having been in their ToS for the longest time that they did such), not offering support for purchases if you indicate any part of the purchase was used for an account other than your own (including that of a family member) (which also wasn't originally in the ToS, and is a legally dubious policy), and I believe one or two other things.
Do note that I've personally had game keys "expire", so don't ever let GMG keys sit unused past the first week of purchase, or you do run that risk. Other than that and making sure not to indicate in your support tickets that any part of your purchase was used for someone else [including, for example, for trading], it's unlikely you'll have any real issues with the site, though their support will still potentially be extremely abrasive and unhelpful in general. :X
As far as the unlicensed keys, I was under the impression that they did make sure to resolve the Witcher 3 thing adequately, and that no other developer has really taken GMG to charge over their unlicensed key sales, so I don't think there actually any real risk to using GMG, at least in regard to unlicensed keys.
So in that sense, yes, keyradar does seem a bit strict- though I think that's less actual strictness, and more that they don't create unique information prompts for each since, simply labeling them as 'Licensed' 'Unlicensed' and 'Has had issues'. GMG has in fact had issues, so they get a warning prompt, even if those issues never actually ended up in long-term harm to any customers.

I've just followed the link and went to buy, but they are putting an extra £2 on for Paypal fees...but credit card transactions are free.
So, they are trying to push you towards giving them your card details?
Not sure how I feel about this...

Paypal has a (2.9% plus $0.30 USD) fee, while credit cards typically range closer to 2% [Chart].
With that in mind, the concept of charging more for PP seems fine- but £2 seems very dubious, indeed [unless you're buying something awfully expensive off them]. :X
In other words, charging more for Paypal might make sense, but that's a very high fee regardless- so your assessment of them pushing you toward CC payments does seem accurate.

Further digging.
To pay by credit card, you HAVE to go through HIPAY.
And here is HIPAY's trust pilot reviews. Lots of people saying they bought via instant-gaming, and they had their money taken, but not had the game sent to them:

That bodes poorly for instant-gaming's credibility- many scam sites include paypal because including paypal is a sign of legitimacy, while making paypal difficult or impossible to use, so as to make sure users end up moving into the scam credit card payment option.
For example, one wine club scam I'm aware of always insists their paypal is temporarily down, and that you should most certainly switch to a credit card payment instead (Hint: Their paypal is never actually up.)
That wine club's reviews are fairly similar to HIPAY's. :X

According to the FAQ it's a CD-Key reseller. So they say they get bulk orders of the boxed version of games at a lower bulk price then put the keys online. CDkey sites tend to be not appreciated by the digital platforms and devs if I'm not mistaken.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah I think the main problem is how the keys are sourced usually as CDkey sellers tend to get revoked. This site seems to have a legit way of obtaining game boxes and keys, so they say, so maybe it's not as bad even if they aren't an authorized digital-only-key seller.

It's a pack containing the 3 DLC. Which, in turn, will grant you the free upgrade to the Special Edition on October 28th.
