Sup. I’m new on the site and dear god what the hell is happening here… Everybody is trying to scam me, fake GameFlip accounts, people asking for steam then deleting me when I ask where is my money. Is somebody making money here? Somebody buying things here? If yes, tell me how can I acquire this. Thanks! ---

We are sorry to hear that. As some suggested, we also suggest you to buy from reputable sellers. I’d recommend you to read our Gameflip Guarantee article below: > **[What is the Gameflip Buyer Guarantee?](https://gameflip.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205357318-What-is-the-Gameflip-Buyer-Guarantee-)** > > All purchases made on Gameflip are protected for free and our Gameflip Guarantee ensures that you get the item as described or your money back. > Buyers can use the Gameflip Guarantee when: > > They don...

Yes,there are a lot of scammers on this site. But I know there are many trusted sellers and buyers too.Here are some tips for you: 1.Dont sell any item to anyone unless he placed the order on the site,even he is saying he will got first to pay you on the paypal because he can withdraw the payment. 2.Record all the process when you trade,buying and selling both,if someone tries to scam then you have the proof and you will win in the dispute. 3.Check if the payment goes through before you deliver! I am a new seller to this site,I think you should have some faith on this site,but stay cautious,ALWAYS! Good luck with the sale! ---
