    What happened? Description:
    He posted on Reddit that he was buying keys, I sent him a message through Steam and we agreed he'd buy 100 keys and I would add 1 to cover half the fee. I went first with 51 keys first batch, and when he said he had sent the money he said it was pending in PayPal, with a screenshot attached. This happened on Wednesday 15th august 2018, and I still haven't gotten any money, and he doesn't answer any messages.​

    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :

    oTTer
    :
    most of them are nonhydra
    noone wants hydra?
    i mean ive got over 100 nonhydra
    just check my inv
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    ok then all good, just because hydras are signifcantly cheaper
    oTTer
    :
    i see
    how does sepa work btw?
    never used it
    is it an instant confirmation?
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    u are using euro as main currency right?
    oTTer
    :
    no, norwegian krone
    but it works in norway
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    and no SEPA is basically european bank transfer
    oTTer
    :
    i checked
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    it usually takes like 1-2 days if 1 country, and up to 3-5 days to a different country
    theres an express option aswell
    oTTer
    :
    so i dont get confirmation until next week?
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    but it costs like 12 euro
    oTTer
    :
    i see
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    and yea 12 eur for just 100 keys might be a little much. And well it depends, it can take just 1-2 days
    in best case
    but it CAN take up to 3-5
    oTTer
    :
    i see
    ill just go with paypal then if its fine by you
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    I could send a confirmation/receipt of the payment imediately after the transaction though. Just it wont show up in your account imediately.
    Paypal would work too yeah
    oTTer
    :
    thats what i figured
    ok
    you down for 100?
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    yeah sure. You are fine with recieving it in Euro?
    oTTer
    :
    ye, paypal converts it
    i believe
    if the conversion is better for you and i get the same i dont care
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    it can convert it but ill be honest and warn you, paypals currency conversion fees are basically a scam
    it takes like 2-5% depending on idk
    when currency is converted
    Just because I only have Euro balance at the moment, no USD
    oTTer
    :
    ok, thanks for telling
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    so its fine for you?
    oTTer
    :
    yeye, np
    whats the conversion from 1.7 dollars?
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    ~ 149,5 euro for 100
    1.7$ = 1,49xxx eur
    oTTer
    :
    fine by me
    ill just go with 20 first
    just to be sure
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    Can you give me your pp email I wanna check fees
    oTTer
    :
    [email protected]
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    Oh fck it wants a fee on f&f. Kinda hoped it wont charge a fee since idk Norway is part of the EU? kinda? idk tbh f✿✿✿
    oTTer
    :
    its got deals
    but were not eu
    how bad is the fee?
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    its a fixed fee of 0,75e + like 0,9% from what i remember
    yeah something like that adds up
    oTTer
    :
    so like 2,5 euro`?
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    I guess I could cover it if Id pay for all 100 at once but for 20 or lower amounts its a little too much
    fee per key*
    hm you sure you cant do SEPA?
    oTTer
    :
    idk, never used it
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    its bank transfer basically, im sure u used bank transfer before
    its the same
    oTTer
    :
    ok
    well, i guess
    why not
    but how much did you say the fee was?
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    0,75e + 0.9% of transaction
    all those fees are confusing af
    oTTer
    :
    like 0,75 baseline?
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    soemtimes its 0,35
    sometimes its 0
    sometimes its 2.9%
    yeah 0,75 fixed
    oTTer
    :
    so a bit more than 2 euros
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    ye around that
    oTTer
    :
    i can just throw in another key

    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :

    oTTer
    :

    try now
    might be my fault
    hadnt added euros as a currency in my account
    ¡ACiD | B/S>Tf2/Csgo keys [AFK]
    :
    it should create a balance in that currency automatically, thats not the issue. The money was taken from my balance, but it still sits in pending
