You need to make it possible for people to pay with credit cards. When you verify that the card holder is using their bank account the credit card takes any charge and rounds it up to $1.00. I went through the process of filling all of my information in like 4 times because of this. Finally when I switched to debit card it worked. But then after verifying that the account was mine, I had to fill in all of my information yet again. This is counter-intuitive. If you just verified that I was using my account, it is obvious that I am going to be paying with that same exact account or else you would reject my payment for not using a verified bank account. The information should be auto filled in. It is just a pain to continually fill all of that in over and over and over again. Please make your site a little more functional. I appreciate your attempt to verify bank accounts before accepting payments. Great idea, but it needs to function better. Please address this.
This is my first time using it and the easiness of it is very good i completely understand how you use and it gives you the time which you will get your items which is great compared to other sites where you just buy and u have to be waiting for forever for your items
I was a long time customer of this site. I placed an order recently like usual. I then get an email asking for my phone number, I reluctantly give them it. I get a call from Player Auctions (I think) asking me personal question after personal question. I answered a few, even though I had already gone through this process before, then stop. He keeps giggling and asking do I want to continue, I say no thank you, he then hangs up and cancels my order but they took the money.
Now they have my money and I don't have the item I ordered because they cancelled it! I tried their customer service chat and the rep argued with me instead of taking care of a long time customer.
Very clean and simple website to look at and navigate through. Security is top notch from what I can tell. I really enjoy the ability to view different sellers and buy with comfort from reputable vendors, as well as the protection the website offers is really good so no one gets burned. Overall a very pleasant experience for a first-time buyer.
Clean transaction for purchase of Habbo Credits. Will definitely buy again
Very quick no hassles what so ever would certainly use again
Wow quick and easy way to be able to dominate any game!
I've been a playerauctions.com member for a decade. Their service and support and availability of game items is excellent! Keep up the great work!
Seems very safe and secure to be completely honest. Company seems to enjoy making the customer feel safe with their purchases.
Love this website. It's the best thing a gamer could ever ask for. It's like your own personal girlfriend. :) Thank You PlayerAuctions!
Seemingly safe and quick. Promised a coupon for a discount in the future.
This website has very slow, crappy, third party operatives that don't know anything about what they're talking about, they point you in the total wrong direction of help. They say you will get an email from them, but you never do. Don't sell on this site. They scam you out a good portion of your money.
Customer Services helped me through my order, I had some issues with their verification system, fortunately it was just a small issue which was solved rather quickly.
Great experience and very professional, order was completed in less than an hour.
This experience was just outstanding! Thank you so much, you have definitely made me a repeat customer.
I was scared first but then all my worries got away they r very fast and honest and i love it i have spent over 800$ already this is the best and amazing website im loving it
I was skeatchy at first but I was told by peopel from WoW who regurly use the place to give it shot :) great response and everything was pretty much safe for both ends.
Great service they told me everything i needed to know and got the payment through quickly and safely
The trade process through PlayerAuctions is excellent. There is no way for the seller to scam you because he doesn't even get paid until YOU confirm that the order was complete!
A great and reliable way of getting your in-game gold and items quickly and safely.
He came online, added me. Went back offline. Came back a few mins later, we hooked up me shmoosed me had a meal concluded our buisness and he was gone!
Thank you!
MagicGoldseller sold me the gold in like 3 minutes. It was faster than I expected. I'm really happy with it!
Answer: You don't want to buy from them.
Answer: Just don't use their service. Trust me, you will save a lot of your nerves and time if you don't.
Answer: How to get started. Click the URL bar and type anything other than your terrible website. Unless you want to be scammed to lose time and money, in which case go ahead and continue using playerauctions.com.
Answer: You got scammed! So did I. PlayerAuctions is nothing but a SCAM!
Answer: Maybe this will help: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playerauctions Regardless they have terrible Customer Service. Their english is not proficient to be doing business in the US and their work ethic is just terrible. It's a shame that they show the stereotypical greed of chinese who just does it for money and doesn't care what gets in the way and cuts too many corners to be acceptable to be called "The world’s safest player to player trading marketplace for WOW Gold, Runescape Gold, Guild Wars 2 Gold, ArcheAge Gold, CS: GO items and much more."
Answer: Don't do business with this company, they stole my money after my account was recovered merely a month later -- I'll be reporting them to the BBB after tonight.
Answer: Hello Mikael. Could you please try accessing the site again on a different browser? It might have just been a temporary website server issue, and this might be sorted out already. If you continue to have problems with this, please take a screenshot of where there seems to be an issue, then send it along with your username to [email protected].
Answer: Absolutely. As a buyer, your payment is secure with us and will not be released to the seller until you click confirm on our website, once you have decided that the item/gold/account that you bought is good and complete. If you find any problems with the sale, you may dispute it and if the sale you received is not as described, you will be issued a refund. As a seller, your payment will be released once buyer is satisfied with the sale, and this guarantees that you will receive payment as opposed to transacting blindly on the internet with someone you don't know. In the case of disputes, if you've proven that you were able to deliver the sale successfully and as described, you will get the payment. Please note that we enact the User Assumption of Risk as stated in the front page of our website, in that we cannot guarantee that all trades will be free from risks. However, by carefully securing your order and being wary of scamming attempts, together with our team's efforts to secure an order, this can be thoroughly mitigated. I can elaborate more if you'd like, just post another question, Sabrina.
Answer: They will make sure you don't get refunded. Be sure of that. There sites a massive scammed just Google them...
