Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Did I get scammed?

 

Steamworld Dig 2 appeared on eBay for £15. The guy had about 10 available and had other games listed for the same price. All new and sealed with free P+P. I bought SD2 and most of the other games quickly sold out except for Ass Creed Origins and FIFA. A few hours later single copies of each game appeared for £4.99 so I bought the last one of as many as I could. Checked again earlier today and more had appeared for £4.99 and quickly sold out.

The user has 1100+ sales, 97% positive, been a user since 2015 and regularly sells AV cables and other cheap items. I assume they've either fell off the back of a lorry or they've got lucky with recent game shops/divisions closing or slimming down (ToysRUs, Grainger, Tesco Direct). I can't understand why anyone would let them go for so cheap.

If you were scammed, you should be able to contact eBay and get a refund. If you weren't scammed, I guess you just got games for pretty cheap



Those are some crazy cheap games. His profile makes him look like an honest seller but I dunno...for that price...

Any date for the delivery? Can you update me if you received the games or not?

If it wasn't for buyer protection, I wouldn't have bothered. Fingers crossed.

The only thing that's suspicious are the prices. Delivery is 3-5 days but feedback suggests they ship quicker. Yeah, i'll update.

You may have been. I've bought items that look genuine on ebay because the seller has a great rating, and have been burned before. You'll just have to wait and see.

Just a guy who doesn't want to be bored. Also

Maybe he's selling just some covers? Else you're lucky.

Wait to judge until the package is supposed to get to ya.



if a long time ebay seller is suddenly selling items they never really carried before for dirt cheap it's usually a hacked account

Maybe they are selling the boxes?
I remember when X1 came out people were selling full priced boxes.
