When I quit World of Warcraft a few years back, I was looking to sell my account in order to make a little money and ensure I never attempted to play again. Gamepal only made one of those goals happen:
As soon as you are done changing your account information, telling them how to pay you, etc, you begin recieving emails from "Blizzard" asking you to confirm you are the original owner of the account by giving away sensitive information, and threatening to suspend or freeze the account if information is not provided. It directs you to a fake account login screen and goes downhill from there. Do not trust them.
Unfortunately for me at the time, there were no bad reviews for the site, just the fake ones that their owners undoubtedly pumped out. So I will be the first to warn everyone to STAY AWAY FROM THIS SITE. I'm sure all of their buying opportunities are just as illegitimate as their selling opportunities, and this goes for all games they claim to do business with, not just World of Warcraft.
Great website for almost anyone. My family and I have purchased many items for greatly discounted prices from very nice people. Extremely reliable site. However, when making purchases locally and picking things up we always travel in pairs to the pick-up sites, just to be safe. Amazing site!
Stay aware from this website, and penny auction sites in general.
Sites like this one are ofen scams,full of inside bidders boosting prices, merchandise being won but never recieved, and "technical errors" that prevent people from winning auctions that they have put a lot of time and money into.
If you want to find items at a discounted price, I suggest you look to sites such as Ebay or even Craigslist (however, beware of scammers on Craigslist as well. Be sure to read through the Craigslist site reviews before shopping there).
You would have a better chance walking into the nearest casino and using your winnings to buy items than bidding on them at Bigdeal. Not a recommended site by any means.

Trevor H. Dear Matthew,
My understanding on what happened here is that Blizzard sent you e-mails requesting information.
A). Those are fraudulent e-mails and everyone gets them, even people who don't play World of Warcraft.
B). How is this a GamePal issue?
C). How do you know that they are illegitimate in other games?
It sounds to me like your blaming GamePal for something (which I'm not sure what that is exactly) just to bash them. Maybe I'm wrong but nothing you said makes any sense.
