Their fees is 10% of sales + more... quite heavy for a middleman service that provides little support. Another thing would be how obsessive they are with your identity; requiring you to send in extensive personal details. Not sure what they're doing with it - which is the scary part! To add on, they would message my paypal email address instead of the registered email I supplied to them to be used as contact. All in all, as legitimate as they sound and say they are, I suggest steer clear.

I decide to try out their site because it is written all over their site about buying accounts safely and all that. After going through an extensive process of identity verification that made me (oddly enough) feel more at ease using their services I finally complete payment verification. The seller almost immediately delivered the account and we got the ball rolling. Well, the seller or "his nephew" are still logging into the account without any way of disconnecting their device from accessing as it is a mobile app. I have messaged their 24/7 live chat which can do nothing for you but answer simple questions and refer you to another department. This is where my nightmare begins. I purchased the insurance... But yet I do not receive responses in regards to the owners still accessing the account kicking me out of the game. It has been 4 days since I have brought up the issue and I have not had a single real response to my issue. I believe their site is misleading. DO NOT CONFIRM YOUR PAYMENT UNTIL YOU HAVE COMPLETE AND FULL POSSESSION OF THE ACCOUNT. No matter the instructions PlayerAuctions.com gives you in their emails. Don't trust anyone, even with a good seller/buyer reputation. I regret ever even thinking about doing this. $258 USD down the drain. I have an account that is either stolen, shared or reclaimed. Either way I am screwed with no help in sight.

I've made many purchases through this site with no fuss. But, as a seller it's nearly impossible to get paid. They promise a 3 business day hold then a disbursement to your account of record. It's been now a week and a half and yet to receive my payment from PlayerAuctions. I've contacted customer support several times and I get excuse after excuse why my payment hasn't been made. It's stuck in gateway. We havnt done our daily disbursement yadayada. After this I wouldn't trust them to place my goods or buy goods from because I don't want another unsuspecting seller to go through this with them. So think twice before posting your goods on this website. The buyer gets the goods Player Auctions gets the money and the Seller gets the shaft.

Order placed and delivered in under 5 minutes. No hassles, no headaches. Only thing worth mentioning was the fact that I needed to give my mobile phone number to receive a PIN to authenticate my account, but it panned out just fine. Would recommend to a friend.

Product was delivered on time. Product was sent in multiple denominations, which was a bit strange at first but understood. Seller is honest and prompt. Will use again.

I like how the site is based around communication. Both parties have opportunities to verify whether they are making a good decision. The website design is old and could be improved.

Playerauctions refuses to refund my money and keep ignoring my emails. Live chat are a bunch of liars who will say anything to just to get you to leave. They don't actually do what they say. STAY AWAY FROM THIS SITE.
