Player Auctions?

While im looking for an account - I stumbled upon Player Auctions. There's multiple good offers on there that'd I'd buy in a heartbeat but I'm quite scared.

I know the site itself is reliable - but how can you reduce your chances of getting scammed?
This seller: http://www.playerauctions.com/Offer/MyOfferList.aspx?Username=Mersas
has many good deals but considering there's so many high level accounts they're selling is that an indicator that they could have been hacked?

 

Most people selling multiple accounts purchased them specifically for resale and that's what this person's profile looks to me. They have decent feedback so far but you can never really tell with account trades as they're always recoverable by the original owner

 

I know, and that's why I'm so scared. Some of those accounts look amazing. But the pricing is odd. Some of them are better yet cheaper than similar ones being sold by the same user.

Like these:

http://www.playerauctions.com/offer/2509total-316qp-138cmb-19x99-skills-sick-account-118292874/

I would hate to purchase one and it turns out to be a fake or something.

 

That's a good point, it does seem a bit strange I'd have them priced the other way around as well.
Maybe try looking for a seller with more feedback? Safety is the number one concern when buying an account because you don't want to start playing on it for it just to get recovered. sure it might be a bit more expensive but it's worth it imo

 

Oddly enough he has some of the highest reputation for RS3 accounts. The majority with higher rep are all just lower level accounts for sale.
I kind of want to take my chances but then again..

In regards to refunds on PA I'm aware that they really only refund if you provide proof. What'd be the best way to get proof of a recovery though?

 

I'm not really sure how you could prove it I've never had to deal with that before, but take lots of screenshots I suppose. You could always ask for advice from someone who trades accounts a lot - they'd know more than I do

 

Alright man - Appreciate the help though!

Also - He doesnt resell he said he's a powerleveler.
