    I still dont get while people sell there Steam Accounts and Guild Wars accounts here.


    A steam account when it sells includes the games you have on it. Which is most of the times

    CS 1.6, CS CZ, CS Source, DOD, DOD Source

    Then people will sell off there account for like 1000 creds which is like what...$5...

    What I dont get is- You pay REAL MONEY for each game.

    I payed $39 for CS SOURCE, $29 For CZ. Thats $60. Then CS comes with Half Life so thats another $10. So $70.

    Then you go and give all that way for 1000 fake internet message forum credits? Wtf is the matter with you.....thats like face value of $5.

    Then some people sell there Guild Wars accounts for 1000 creds...I mean wtf...thats a $50 game....

    You mean thats $70, right? 40+30 = 70 ;) Then another 10 so thats about $80 total. I just thought id point that out.

    I think people sell them though because they are credit hungry, or they didn't pay that much for them in the first place if you know what i mean.

    Most of the time, I think their parents pay for it, they dont use and and figure they can get credits and buy something they want with them.

    So in face they are not out any money, Mom and Dad are.

    Who would pay 15 euro for a steamacc on ebay?
    that's not the real value of it.
    5 euro. that's what it's worth for some ----ing database entry.
    steam is a heap of ----, used to lure money out of your pocket with all that gamepromotion crap.

    and the games on it... common. cs was so 5 years ago, it's worth under 5 dollars.
    people who sell css for 5 dollars are morons, though.
