Buying Guide 💰

If you have come this far, so you might be interested in buying. Let me show you the best ways to buy Valorant accounts.

1) Find the Trusted Marketplace

If you start looking to buy a Valorant account, you will find many websites, social groups, etc. where they sell Valorant accounts. But you don't know if the sellers are legit. Most of the social groups and less known websites are fake, they create fake vouches and after getting your money they block you or won't respond.

We have curated a list of known marketplaces with the ratings. you can check out this link to see the list : Click here

If you want to be sure that your selected marketplace is Trusted, check for the guarantee and assurance on buying. Also, check if they have middlemen to help you buy an account safely. If you are checking vouches, always check the user's profile whether they are legit or bottled vouches.

2) Negotiate Pricing

The next step would be to negotiate for the best price, Negotiation is all depends on buyer preference. if you really like the account then you can do whatever you can. 
Pricing is divided into three categories:

1. Rush Pricing
   If sellers want to sell an account in a rush, they probably get 20-40% of the account's total spending or even less. Most of the scams happen in this pricing segment. If you are trying to buy rush Accounts, make sure you have checked our guide to Common scams.
2. Fair Pricing
   Most sellers sell his/her accounts for 40-50% of the account's total spending.
3. Exclusive Pricing
   If the account has some exclusive skins like Champions 2021 or VCT Lockin Knife then the account values increase to more than 50% up to 100% or more.

3) Validate account ownership

This is the most important step and you should be more focused while checking this.

Ask the seller if he/she is the first owner of the accounts, buying an account from the first owner is the safest account you can find. if he/she is not the first owner then ask him/her about the previous owners' list.

The first owner must have a WTR email from RIOT, that's how they can prove ownership. If it is not the first owner then ask for deleted WTR and receipts video from the current owner.

Ask for the premiere number to be removed and all the skins or rank info. and the account owner is not reported as a scammer elsewhere.

Make sure the seller has all the purchase receipts, 
if you are puzzled and find it confusing, HIRE A Middlemen (see next step).

4) Hire Middlemen for safety

I know its a lot to do in step 3 and it might be difficult to track all of this information.  To get more safely, hire a middleman.
Most of the trusted social groups has middlemen.

Middlemen will make sure:

1. The account owner is verified and trusted✅
2. Account ownership is valid✅
3. Purchase receipts valid✅
4. WTR and account creation date verification

Although, apart from this. MM will take the government IDs of the seller to make sure the account is trusted and won't be revoked by the seller later. If the seller revokes the account due to any reason then MM will help you get the money back by talking to the owner.

The MM, will check the account first then get the money if you agree with all the details then get the account from the seller to test. After that, if you give a green signal then MM will transfer the money to the seller.

The MM has small fees, 1-5$ depending on the account value.

5) Check account bans & premiere number

Just make sure the account has no bans that you are not aware of or the Premiere number attached to it. If they are there then it could be a risky deal.

6) Keep in touch with the Owner and Enjoy 😁

Selling Guide 🤑

2) Negotiate Pricing

As mentioned in buying guide (above), please make sure you know your account's worth, Make sure if there are any problems with the account like No WTR, lost premiere number , community bans, etc. must be communicated with the buyer.

3) Be ready with Account ownership validation

You need to have WTR (Welcome to RIOT email from RIOT) and purchase receipts. Make sure you know the total spend of the account you can check it here 

If you are not the first owner, make sure you have the details of the previous owners with screenshots of the transaction and the WTR deletion video.

Remove the premiere number if attached and mention all the details to the buyer before proceeding with the exchange.

4) Hire Middlemen for safety

Hire Middlemen which will take small fees either you or the buyer pays to the MM.
Show all the proofs to the MM of account ownership, WTR , Receipts, and Transaction Screenshots. Must corporate with the Middle with all the info they ask for. (make sure MM is trusted)

5) Share the account with the buyer

If middlemen ask for the account, share it with the buyer to verify all the things stated by you are correct. Make sure your account doesn't have 2FA enabled (ask otp to login) you don't share any OTP until get confirmed to the buyer that the account is good. 

OTP is the key, if your 2FA is disabled then to login in game directly it won't ask fro OTP but log in to the Valorant website for email change, it asks for OTP.
Using this, you can differentiate if the buyer is actually checking the account or trying to steal your account.

6) Get money and enjoy 💲

if everything is good, then you will get your money from the MM, then you can enjoy your amount. Make sure to do not try anything funny in the future like trying revoking your account, MM has all your info they can release your info the public for fraud in the social groups.

conclusion

Make sure you validate the account info, buyer info, seller info, etc. before the commitment.
Make sure your MM is trusted not another scammer in social groups.
