@hartdaniel
Appreciate your reply as well.
It really depends on what game you are referencing. Many of the games we sell, as well as the "new" games we will be listed next month allow virtual trading.
However, the sale of virtual accounts is a gray market as it causes no direct damage to them as they are now receiving money from a "subscribed" account which should have been "unsubscribed". In most of these games, the reason it's stated there in their Terms of Service is so that the game developers can protect themselves legally from class action lawsuits against gamers if they ban an account that was gold farming, macro, botting, or exploiting their game.
As for your PayPal Statement, you are 100% correct. PayPal is the worst online method for virtual trading, and the only reason people use it is because they buy into PayPal's Buyer Protection marketing that they will protect you when they don't support virtual transactions. However, with us we accept 5 payment services that do protect against virtual transactions being MoneyBookers and Click & Buy who investigates virtual transactions and asks for proof which we are required to deliver to them, MoneyBookers Escrow and Escrow.com who handles the transaction as a third party which the payment isn't released to us until the customer is satisfied with his order, and lastly we accept direct credit card which you aren't billed until AFTER we deliver your item and can be disputed of course with your financial institution as long as you don't abuse or lie about the situation as we can rebuttal with proof. Those 5 payment methods give buyers all the protection they need, yet the good bulk of them get bought into PayPal False Marketing.
In closing, the Original Poster has yet to provide any proof, and nothing he says matches with anything related to any issues during the time he posted this complaint, so I am going to assume this is competition who posted this once again. Eventually, we will catch you, and the more you post, the more we build a stronger case against you. If you are in China or another location, don't think you're immune, as it's cheaper to hire an attorney there, and the US is one of the best countries in terms of Freedom of Speech versus other countries who will not protect you with this same Amendment.

Appreciate your reply, but any entity that willingly helps someone violate TOS agreements. Certainly leaves more than a little doubt to their legitimacy.
Paypal has been notorious for not caring about their users getting ripped off. So this fact is pointless in many users eyes.
If you indeed are legit, please accept my apologies.

None (At least, I would assume none) of these MMO account buying websites are legit. They are hoping you will do one of a few mistakes so they can steal or at least plunder your account. They know full well you cannot tell the MMO admins the truth, and that users wont bother to attempt recovery at all.
If you insist on using those services, plan on getting grieved in one way or another. Best to just avoid them, and save your account for a friend or relative to assume. I have heard of limited success on auction sites, and local listings.

Do not expect ethical behavior from a company whose business model is entirely based on violating the terms of conditions of other companies.
