Hey guys, so my question might sound a little weird, but to be honest I'm really insecure when it comes to buying stuff from price comparisons like for keys on the internet. So I decided to sign myself up here and ask before I just go and waste my money on something like a not serious key-shop. I'm from Germany and was searching for the upcoming game Doom Eternal Download Code on a few price comparisons. Just as an example: When I searched for the game key this was one of the stores that appeared: Doom Eternal key price comparisonCould you guys tell me if these key stores are legal? Do they have the allowance to sell the games? And how do I see if the store is reliable or not? Are there some characteristics that I can see that? I'd be thankful for any helpful answer. Best wishes timothole

I'm not familiar with that site but it does look suspicious. I played Doom 2016 on the PS4, and I don't play much games on PC other than Doom so my guess might not be best. Curious to know if anyone else has any thoughts on this...?

my understanding is those kinda sites get their keys from bundles, requesting review keys or manipulating regional pricing and other stuff like that so while they are legal it's all a bit shady and 'grey market'. if you're concerned about the morality of buying stuff from places like that then you probably shouldn't buy from places like that.
consider playing the Doomer Boards Projects instead, I guarantee* they're better than eternal (even the ones I made maps for)
*no money back

These key resellers are rarely saving you much more than 20% on a new game, so I'd suggest their claims of being legal are true. They're just being legal in the most crooked way possible. If you're determined to save some money, don't feel bad about doing it. The keys are valid and the game should work just fine.

Out of all of these sites, GMG is the most legit. Got Doom Eternal Deluxe Edition for 60 Euros. 20 Euros cheaper.
