Yes this site is legit because I've ordered Call of Duty 2 from them before as well as Quake 4. I have had zero issues with them. Hopefully this isn't a repost. Btw with this site you can opt for the game with the CD's/DVD's or you can get only the cd-key and activate it yourself. With a cdkey only order the cdkey is emailed to you within a day or so. And yes I've used this option before and have gotten a completely legit cd-key that was never in use when I went to play online. This is an actual retail store in Thailand so hopefully that will ease your nerves.
Nice price....but I'd think twice before giving them your card since there's a security alert that comes up during checkout.....since they're in Thailand maybe they accept a few chickens instead.

Zest has been around for a while, and have many happy customers. If you are ok with waiting the 7-14days to get the game this can't be beat. I'm interested in the cdkey option. If they could email me the key and I add that to my steam account that would be bad ass!

Where does it show the option for a CD-key only? I take it the user has to register for the site first?
in for the cd-key only option for no shipping charge came to almost 17.00 you need a verified by visa card or master cards equivalent for the credit option to work and shortly after i submitted payment my cc co called to verify the payment awaiting cd key now

Yeah...my 08 C350 will only be 1,164,760 Baht.....what a bargain.
Wow, the length some people are willing go when they think they are saving a few bucks ($36.99 @ Fry's, ATM)... On a game, no less. Best of luck to those of you that jumped in. Please come back and let us know how things go when the game company tells you that you are using someone elses' key.
I wasn't even going to comment and just let the thread die a natural death but then I notice some people actually jumping in... Google the word keygen. People would be doing this here, too, in the US if they didn't get put in jail for doing something so silly.
why don't you be a little more ignorant. if you even read my post you would see that zest is a retail store in thailand with legit games. i have PERSONALLY gotten games from them and NEVER had my cdkey in use.
btw keygens wouldnt generate a cdkey that would allow you to get on steam anyway. most online games have a master server that validates every key when you play online to make sure it was created by the company that made the game. if your cdkey doesn't match one of the keys in their database, it's rejected. keygens only work for single player games. if you had any idea how keygens work with games, you would know that. but looking at your screenname it's easy to see why you're uninformed.
thx again alea35 just got my key for 17 bux lil bit of work for the 1st time orderer but well worth it cd key only option worked great
Thanks for purchasing The Orange Box.
We hope you've been enjoying your new games. Given that you previously owned at least one of the games included in The Orange Box, we'd like to offer you an opportunity to give your extra games to a friend. Give the gift of game by visiting your 'My Games' list in Steam or clicking the button below.
seems like it would be fine to me. relatively low risk to try. and worth saving nearly 20 bucks.
generate a one-time-use CC# and give it a whirl people. go for the cd-key option.. they probably just open up the game, send you the cdkey, then chuck the rest. that, or they've purchased key-only-packages to distribute. then, no waiting on shipping or paying for shipping.
worst that could happen is you log onto steam and the key doesn't work. then you call your CC company, report fraudulent charges, and go on your merry way.
I went ahead and took the plunge. Kudos OP for finding a place where you can get value for the US dollar. Not an easy thing to do these days. Say what u will about steam, this is a way to save some money with just a key sent via email. Finally, the free market working for the little guy.

You have so little understand of how business works or have some other motivation that in either case makes this supposed "deal" suspect at least and down-right fraudulent/criminal at worst. If you are so sure you did a good thing, then why don't you contact Steam/Valve and ask them if what you did is okay? In fact, I think I will send Vale an email specifically linking to this thread and find out since I know you wont do it.
And everytime someone has to resort to picking on my screen name tells me that they are just grasping at straws. I suppse you can take comfort that at least Al won the Nobel Peace price this year bring such prestige and honor to the prize (/sarcasm).

You are the second one making fun of his handle this week.
yes its annoying you need to have a visa card that is signed up with "verified by visa" site so i had to find a card that would sign up on this link https://usa.visa.com/personal/security/vbv/ or the master card equivalent and then send a scan of the credit card with only the last 4 digits expiration date and name showing and a id or drivers license after i sent that i had my valid cd-key in about 20 minutes no shipping charges on send cd-key only option if you want the box and dvds it will cost ya almost the price of the game

Im trying to see whether it is my bank that is stopping the purchase. The error message seems to point that way.
Well that site will not accept any of my credit cards. ARGH and I don't know anybody who has a card they will take. Anybody want to help someone out, I will paypal non-cc funds for it.
I even tried a paypal virtual number and that didn't work either.

I had to try two cards before I found one that worked. Have you tried Paypal's one-time Visa payment thing?

Btw, the only thing matters is the CD Key. As long as the key is legit, I don't see how bad this deal is. I ll give you green.
How small and petty do you have to be if that's the only way you can make yourself feel better? No surprise another crappy post was listed as an example.
If only I got a dime for every supposedly progressively, libral, open minded person that can actually make a good post as oppose to beat a dead, er... horse... Why don't you guys really do what you say and move on? He's not running for re-election in case you didn't pay attention in your polysci/history classes...
ok ill try this one more time you have to use a visa card thats enrolled with https://usa.visa.com/personal/security/vbv/ or the master card equivalent one time use cards will not work you will need to send a scan of the physical card with 1st 12 numbers blocked out and a ID

Neither of my credit cards participate in the securecard program.
