NoahTheWeebWolf Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Just curious since I have seen how risky account sales are normally. It seems they have insurance for account theft too but not sure if that extends to stolen items on the account too. What are your thoughts/experience with players auctions?
podyonrs Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 ehh i dont know. i always never thought it was legit
Krys Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 i think you cant get your money back when someone recovers the account.
Stormtrooper Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 As long as you buy from a verified seller you should be good, but a lot of people get a few good ratings and then scam people on that site. I would suggest to use with caution if wanting to buy an account.

What are your thoughts/experience with players auctions? are you looking to buy a main?

Caesar Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 You can always get scammed regardless. Buying an account from another owner is never 100% safe.
Scotty Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 people ALWAYS recover accounts on PA seem to anyway*
blm95 Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) No, their "insurance" is fucking bullshit. Only time I've ever chargebacked was because they refused to uphold the $50 of insurance I bought on a $350 account that was recovered less than a month after purchase (and the guy has 100% positive rep over 40 sales). I've never had a problem with recovery for the other 20+ accounts I've bought from PA (different games), but it seems like 99% of the RS community is a bunch of fucking scumbags who need to scam over $50 for lunch money. With that being said, I bought an account from muffins a little while ago and, even though he resold it to me, he guaranteed money back if the account got recovered. In general, I would not trust a single soul who is not well established in at least two communities. If they have a solid reputation, it is not worth their reputation to scam you over less than a few hundred dollars in most cases. Edited January 16, 2016 by blm95 2
knnlameosb Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 I dont think they'll recover items on the account that you lost. They might reimburse you for the money paid though.
NoahTheWeebWolf Posted January 16, 2016 Author Posted January 16, 2016 are you looking to buy a main? Possibly
