    Cd Keys

    Is it possible to buy another VAILD cd-key cheaper than buying a new game??

    doubt it, the cost of the disc is virtually nothing thats the thing with people who sell electronic media they do 6 months work then bang off as many copies as they like at near 100% margin.

    So i VERY much doubt there would be any discount for just buying a cd key. Also they would say you need the disc to run the game anyway.

            This is the place, but they only get limited numbers of serials at any 1 time so the price varies....

                You're just paying for the license as you would with any other piece of software, not the CD/Disc.

                  If someone else used your cd key and your's became invalid, you'd have no recall to EA to have your key re-validated......with an original you can pic the cd etc and request your key re-validated......happened to a mate of mine....true yarn........

                    but the game requires the disc to run though so it can be assumed they aquired there image of the game illegally and are using no cd cracks.

                    I wouldn't trust any site like those listed there probably serials created with ******s that you can't use online anyway.

                      and what about people with multiple pc's on a lan or something? they have to buy a single game for a single pc, its kind of unfair, but i guess that's the way they make some money, so...

                          those sites sell legit asian version cd keys...full retail game in US might cost around $50, but in asia it would cost around $20 or less...so they buy asian version, rip the package and sell cd key only, without spending money for the shipment....however, as I know it's illegal to sell imported versions in US, or you won't get support from EA

                              Seriously not worth it. Just buy a new copy andyou won't have to worry about it, Is it really worth it just to save a few bucks?
