This site is amazing, fast delivery with "instant delivery" feature. Its so difficult to sell my item to different country cause the time difference. Buy with instant delivery i can relax while someone buying my account. But there is some bug like when i want to create an offer, a fill all the detail and when i'm done, click create, it all blank and i have to refill all the detail again. Its lil bit annoying. Hope PA can fix the bug^_^
Over the past few months I have racked up a few purchases on Player Auctions and to be honest its the safest and easiest site I have come across and its the only one I use now.
All the sellers have been great and if I have had any issues I can cancel my order and get a full refund its another reason to use Playerauction.com
Best site ever, fast, cheap, amazingly legit i reccommend 11/10, the customer support is also very fast and great!
I had my Old school runescape account recovered after 4 months and i gave evidence and provided pictures! On top of this, 3 other buyers from that seller reported their account got recovered as well. The seller said nothing in response so I'm thinking "hey I should receive a refund since I gave proof and the seller didnt even respond. Short story is I did not receive a refund and now I cannot do anything else to get my money back. Site is legit but the sellers will screw you over in a heartbeat STAY AWAY!
Was hoping they'd use a higher level account for safety reasons but all went well.Other than that I have no complaints.
After the bad review, the playerauctions contacted me and we solved the problem, its all good now thanks for the help
Hello Matheus,
We are so sorry for the difficult process you had to go through. We are now working on your case again and for more details, I sent you a PM. Rest assured that you'll be hearing from us again once there are any important updates to it.
Kind regards,
Richard
The site provides no actual protection from scammers and their way of helping you is to send the proof that you provide to the seller and ask them if it is true. There may be legit transfers from this site but the first one I went for was a scam and the company did nothing to help.
Hello there, Cameron,
I'm very sorry for the troublesome experience you had to go through. I sent you a private message about this and I want you to know that we have reopened the case and we are currently working on it. I will keep you posted about it until a compromise or resolution is reached for your case. Thank you for extending your patience on the matter, Cameron.
Kind regards,
Richard
Purchased my League of Legends account and after one month the seller took it back and changed everything so I now do not have a League account to play on. I ask them for help and they give the most automated response ever of just asking Riot Support for who currently is in control of the account. Riot said they can't give me that information unless I have the background history information of the account in which I do not, only the seller of playerauctions does but playerauctions told me they can only help me if I ask Riot to confirm who is in posession of the account. They are also SUPER SLOW AT REPLYING DO NOT TRUST.

Excellent no reservations, I would recommend this company to anyone
Most secure trading site out there. Have been using players auction for approximately 10 years and have not had a single issue!
Really good service and customer support. I got my accounts fast and easy. They were able to answer my support requests when my account got suspended and within hours or a day they were able to get back to me and they helped me with my problem. Selling is no problem either it's easy to create offers and its safe.
Really fast and good site for buying accounts, this is like 3rd account im buying and all of those were sent to me really fast, but the first acc i bought had 46 skins instead of 117 so i contacted support and they didn't do anything about it, maybe ill get my money back.
Platinum I bought got taken out of my account in Warframe, just one day after using this service. My account is now in the negative.

As expected no help what so ever was provided
You guys are a disgrace for a gaming market place you frankly do not deserve to run a website
I strongly discourage people from using playerauctions.com
SCAM!

My order is still "processing" because my payment needs to be verified even though I paid 7 hours ago, and i wouldn't normally be upset about something like this and I didn't expect to get my account immediately, but if I hadn't been told that it takes on average, one hour to complete I wouldn't be quite as agitated as I am now.
Hello Coltan,
I'm very sorry to hear about your experience with order 3284796. We usually do additional checks in order to improve our security and catch potential scammers, and we're really sorry that your payment verification had to go through that. I sent you a private message about this and I'd like to offer my support in case you decide to avail of our services again in the future.
Best regards,
Richard
As soon as I paid they were contacting me to fill my order! I was still logging into the game when they were contacting me to fill my order. Very fast and super easy to order.
Very pleased with this website had no issues with payment and no issues with the seller who was quick and delivered me the goods within seconds and i would personally not listen to the bad reviews on here and will be back for more :)
A great web site for those of us that love games. Reliable transactions, fast sales etc. Overall recommended. -jackHoff
Couldnt even sign up for an account, tried using several friends phones to receive the SMS and it would never send... Pretty sure this site just exists to get your email/info. I go to contact support and no help, but i see they are busy replying to peoples reviews instead XD
