I'd like to mention that I purchased BF2 at gamekeystore.com and had a very pleasant shopping time doing so. Top notch service and prices.

Here too. Took longer then expected to get the key but that was due to some problems with his supplier. But all in all, it works great with a huge discount.
I'll definetly be ordering more from him.

i don't know how far this can go |
I hope it goes VERY FAR. The keys are legit and work perfectly. Obviously, UBIsoft will charge as high a price as the customer will tolerate.

For those who have purchased keys for online games like BF2, please let us know if you have any problems regarding duplicates, etc. At any point. For a place like this it would be nice to have ongoing user reviews . You never know if a place might rotate the keys say every little bit (say 3-6 months). Sell it once, then sell it again in a few months thinking they might not use it anymore.
I'm considering it, but at the same time with exchange it works out to about 1/2 the price of a copy in the store. Thats a fair risk to take if you end up getting screwed down the road.

What i can say is that legit copies here, in Russia, cost much less.
For example, Call of DUty, published here by 1C company costs 200 rubels in a 2cd jewel box case.
200 rubels is roughly 7us$.
The same hapens with most other games. Most new games come it a price of 600-750 rubels, like Half Life 2 did. I actually bought HL2 DVD BOX which had 5 cds for 18 us $.

The BF2 key I got from GKS worked perfectly and I thought the guy did pretty well in handling the delays and stuff and keeping people updated.

internal_storm, are the games you order from thailand english in version or are they all in some asian language? cuz if you could find that cheap games, in english, you could make a bigger profit + reputation if you actually sold the full game boxes cheapo-style.. most people want the whole physical package, and if its so damn cheap in those countries, why not update your stuff and sell cheap 100% original physical gameboxes?

Wouldn't work tbh. Customs would put a massive charge on all the imports. |

Thing that defy's me is the fact that the companies are not willing to sell their games at a price people will buy, so instead of the 50 or so us dollars, charge what you charge here or in asia 20$. Then all of this would have been no use.
And that's what sux, companies exploit the higher income of better off people in USA or EU. I mean you get the same package here and there, but the price differes substantially.

Yep. companies will ALWAYS charge as much as they possibly can without negatively affecting profit.
If they raise the prices by 10% and that causes them to loose 5% customers, they'll keep on doing it.
The only way to stop high prices, is for the general public to boycot it (so sue me i cant spell it). Thats the only reason for the companies to lower the prices, if people dont accept to pay that much for something. But people dont boycot anything, people think "FUCK it sucks, so expensive, but i really want it.. so ill buy it anyway", and guess what happens then? Thats right, the company got its profit, no need to lower the price.
The fact that i remain a diehard capitalist tough i realise those facts amaze me  i rock!

So internal storm if I understand correctly you basically just purchase lots of CDkeys from Thailand, not the actual boxes? Does the company you purchase the keys from destroy the boxes and keys after they are transferred to you?

EA Games had a thread in there forums and a mod even said they would check with their legal team but that as far as he knew it was legal. I have had no contact with EA whatsoever so again I can't speak for them.
