Both sellers and staff are amazing at what they do
Offers are vouched with feedback and always available
Best of all is that security is top notch you will check the order as a buyer and get to confirm it first
Received the order in less than 5 mins I dont even know how the seller seller is still not asleep haha
Thank you so much, Mikey! Some sellers have multiple operators on the account so their availability is spread out. I'm happy you got the order when you needed it!
Thanks. It was easy and the seller got to handle everything for me which I appreciate.
Thank you very much for the positive feedback, Domsky!
The only downside is that they have no Paypal and verifying your payment takes a few minutes.
Outside of that tho the service is for real, they actually save guard your money until you get your purchase and if you dont you can get a refund
Thank you so much for bearing with the payment process, Evandro! Much appreciated on this.
Thanks a lot for the kind and positive review, MJ!
Loved it, it was fast and safe. The seller was super nice, even though english didnt seem to be his first language, he made sure I was taken care of. =)
Thank you very much for sharing the nice experience you had, Junny!
Title. Will always get my online stuff here. Payment was difficult at first but worth it since you get access to ton of offers
Thank you so much for choosing us, Harry!
Very cheap gold offers with extremely fast deliveries. Gotta love it.
Thank you so much for this, Timothy!
Easy to use. It was also easy talking to sellers. There are bad apples here and there but my advice is just to pick a good dealer and you're set.
Thank you very much for the kind review and for your understanding, Jack. :)
Jon and Ron went back on forth on my ticket to resolve a scam message sent to me. Good assistance effort on their part.
IMPORTANT: IF you get a chat message saying "Congrats, you sold your offer" yada yada don't fall for it. Your orders should be emailed to you and should appar in the Orders Sell page.
Don't be a dumdum like me lmao.
Thank you very much, I'm glad you were able to recover your account, Lorenzo! Good luck with it and I hope you're able to sell it soon!
This is simply the best gold trading site for me. Lots of veteran sellers with real vouches and good availability/stocks. Will buy again.
Thank you very much, Sieder; happy to know you're able to get in touch with many sellers on the site. :)
Handled my order fastly with no worry at all. Hardworking team have reply on my messages. Pls in the future kindly add Paypal for easier process.
We're sorry but PayPal was already removed several years ago.
Thank you for the kind rating, Rudolfo! Hope you enjoy your purchase. :)
Got refunded on an order. Took a lot of days but everything was justified.
Thank you for trusting us with your order and apologies for any slight delays, Alain.
The fastest and most efficient trading site for me. Rules can be a lil to strict but I always get orders fine.
Thank you so much for the kind feedback and for bearing with our verification process, Russell; much appreciated.
Had a smooth transaction with playerauctions. Excellent customer support.
Thanks a lot for this, Jamir! Much appreciated.
Selling on Playerauctions was a breeze. The platform provides a secure and reliable environment for sellers to connect with buyers. I was able to list my items quickly and easily, and I received multiple offers within a short period of time.
The payment process was smooth and hassle-free, and I appreciated the constant communication from the buyer. Definitely check out the site for those who have extra gaming stuff to sell.
Thank you very much for your continued stay as a valued seller, Gustavo; we wish you all the best in your future offers!
Great experience with playerauctions! Fast and reliable service. Highly recommend.^^
Thank you so much for the rating and recommendation, Anderson. :)
7/11 UPDATE: After complaining on TrustPilot, BBB, and SiteJabber, PlayerAuctions finally read my support case and issued the refund. I am still unhappy since this has consumed a lot of time, sending evidence repeatedly to their robotic support team until someone bothered to actually read my evidence and messages.
I wish PlayerAuctions all the best, but I don't want to risk my money on the platform until they invest in more training for their customer support team and consumer protections against fraud.
I am a native English speaker, all of my communications were clear and respectful until they repeatedly ignored my messages and deferred responsibilities. The only requirement was empathy and to actually read the support case information provided. I hope PlayerAuctions takes this feedback to heart. It shouldn't require me to jump through numerous hopes for them to actually read my message and find the correct resolution.
A chargeback costs me time. It costs PlayerAuctions upwards of $100 per transaction. I expect far better from a platform with 4.3 stars on Trustpilot.
--- Historical Review ---
DO NOT USE PLAYER AUCTIONS. Garbage company full of crooked employees.
Shame on the employees for working for a disgusting company.
Sent them evidence TWICE and "John" and "Bryan" from the customer support team refuse to acknowledge evidence in my favor. Read my support case please, otherwise, you're not really acting fairly for customers.
Hi Independent P,
Your case is still being reviewed. I understand that you would like the resolution to be faster, but kindly note that the support team never "refused" your case and this is still being taken care of in your ticket. In fact, our agents are asking you for information about the order.
Please note that this comes in light of the fact that your order does not come with after-sale protection, which is a requirement for after-sale support. Further, you were refunded on a prior order back in June, which proves our system is able to assist you.
Kindly give us some time to work through this as cases can reach several days to weeks. Your case isn't closed yet and it's being handled.
Regards,
Richard
Sublime experience buying gold at playerauctions. Reliable and fast service. Highly recommend.
Thanks a lot for the positive rating and feedback, Johnny!
Had a fantastic experience purchasing here.
The selection of items available was extensive, and I easily found what I was looking for. The transaction process was simple and secure, providing me with peace of mind. The customer service was outstanding, with the team going beyond what's needed to assist me throughout the process. The delivery of my purchase was prompt, and the item arrived exactly as described.
Very satisfied.
Thank you for the very kind sentiments, Delfin! We really appreciate this.
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...
