Frameworks and checklists for comparing MMO marketplaces, gold sellers, account vendors, and boosting providers.
A marketplace should be evaluated by its protections and policies, not just the cheapest listing.
A repeatable checklist for comparing gold sellers, account vendors, item sellers, and boosting providers.
A marketplace is only as safe as the protections it puts between you and the seller. These guides break that down into things you can check before you pay: whether money is held in escrow until delivery, how sellers are verified, what the refund and dispute process looks like, which fees are added at checkout, and how much the risk changes depending on what you buy. Gold, accounts and boosting each fail in different ways, so the same marketplace can be a sensible choice for one and a poor one for another.
For side-by-side numbers, use the vendor comparison tool or the reviews hub, where every seller has a score, a breakdown and a dated review. Our PlayerAuctions vs G2G vs Eldorado guide compares the three biggest open marketplaces directly, and direct sellers vs marketplaces explains when a single-vendor shop is the better bet.
Before any purchase, read is buying MMO gold safe, the payment protection guide and the publisher RMT policies for your game. They explain what you can recover if a delivery fails, and what the game’s own rules say about buying at all.
