To be honest, I don't think I can steer people away from this site strongly enough, considering this phrase:

Interestingly enough (I think, anyways), https://twitter.com/LewieP is promoting Fast2Play a lot, and has (as far as I can tell) avoided talking about the above phrase. Part of me wants to see someone's Steam account banned, just so that he can learn a little about his responsibility for promoting deals.

Sowee.

Fast2Play are owned by the same company that owns/operates G2Play, so Buyer Beware. Also, they're the subject of this article: http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2014/03/28/retailer-scam-resells-humble-bundle-games-reaps-profit.aspx Pixieking ---------- ASUS P8P67 Evo - Intel i7 3770k - 2X4GB GSkill RipJaws X DDR3 1600 - HIS 7950 IceQ - Creative XtremeMusic Soundcard - NZXT Phantom 530 - Thermaltake Toughpower XT 675 - Win7 x64

You can see it on their deals, lots of bundle games and priced quite a bit higher.

really guys? Was there single person that bought game from g2play or similar site and considered it be really legit key? Even if they plastered adds everywhere stating that their website is illegal people would probably think its legit retail reseller... As someone told me couple days ago, dont blame stupid people, its not their fault for being born with half of brain* (not exact words ).

This. I ordered at g2play quite a few times and never had any issues. I did not however have any illusions as to what I was buying(e.g. non legit key/one that proverbially fell off the truck/bundled etc).

One would have to be quite uninformed or oblivious to think it would be legit.
