I'd be cautious with these gray marker sites, many credit card scammers sell their keys in places like g2a that they bought with stolen cards.
You can get your keys revoked or you can even get banned.
Edit: I mixed it up with another site, I'm not aware whether gmg is a shady gray market site or not.
Interesting! I was confident they're legit, as they're indexed by Is There Any Deal, and also listed as legitimate in the r/Gamedeals collaboration on Reddit.
While I would never do business with G2A since I heard about their shady practices, is there a source for illegitimacy with Green Man Gaming?
I did some internet searching and I see constant back and forth on both sides. I've never had a problem buying from them and never had any key revoked.
I've never ever heard of issues with Green Man Gaming. I don't think I'd consider them to be grey market like G2A or Kinguin. They're simply a non-Steam authorized reseller.
