This is really simple way on how to get steam games a lot cheaper than the usual price!

So the site required for this is going to be EBAY and to have an activated PayPal or another EBAY payment method.

Here is a good example - Arma 3 is normally [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

On ebay - [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] Thats more than 40% OFF.

CD/DVD Key Like the arma one above^

All you have to do obviously make an account, Type in the item e.g. Portal 2 Steam then sort by price - lowest to Highest then buy the cheapest one with a cd key or something along them lines in the title the person will send you the steam activation code via ebay message.

Then go over to the steam client and click the games tab at the top - [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Then 'activate a product on steam'

Copy and paste the key sent to you Via Ebay messages into the Gaps and then you now have the purchased game.

Buying an ebay item that sais Gift

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] As you can see it sais Gift

All you have to do obviously make an account, Type in the item e.g. Portal 2 Steam then sort by price - lowest to Highest then buy the cheapest one with a GIFT In the title.

Then your going to want to read below (Description) and it should say something along the lines as 'Once purchased message the Steam Id' So guess what? Your going to message them the steam id.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] In the top right it says the steam id mine is gavplays so just send them the message through steam. Soon enough you should get a friend request through then the person will ask for confirmation that your the buyer buy asking you what your ebay name is along with the item you bought. Then they will either invite you to a trade or Gift it you through steam or email. (If they ask for the email in the description on the ebay item) You can either add this to your steam account inventory and send onto somebody else as gift or activate it for yourself, its up to you.

EDIT: This also works for origin the person will send you a CD KEY through via message then enter it in the origin client.

Thanks for reading.
