LeakySavings555 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 (edited) EDIT: The codes I have for trade are for the Finnish region and only work on a Finnish account (Finland, Europe). The original post below erroneously equated all EUR codes to each other. I apologize for the confusion! Hello! I have a couple of European 50 EUR codes (Euro currency), and I was wondering if anyone was in need of those and willing to trade 50 USD codes or whatever is the Asian equivalent of that for them. The Asian cards don't need to be HKD, but if you have something else on offer, I'll need to do a little research first and set up a new account. Basically I'm looking for codes I can use to buy games from the Asia region. This could potentially save some money for both parties if you're otherwise used to paying a little more for your foreign PSN cards than they're worth.How I imagine this will go: You DM me if you're interested with what you have on offer, and I'll send you my code first. You confirm that the code works for you i.e. redeem it, and only then send me your code. No risk for you--none that I can think of anyway.

SegaJAM Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Ok, seriously, DON'T SEND YOUR CODE TO SOME RANDOM PERSON. How you imagine it will go is absolutely how it will NOT go, considering you're so willing to send your code first. Don't be foolish and just redeem those codes yourself and get yourself games/dlc. If you really want HKD, purchase it from play-asia. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeakySavings555 Posted October 1, 2022 Author Share Posted October 1, 2022 (edited) I just joined to make this thread. LeakySavings555 was the name PSN suggested to me for my HK account. I thought it was funny. Granted, probably looks a little weird considering the topic has to do with money too. 53 minutes ago, SegaJAM said: Ok, seriously, DON'T SEND YOUR CODE TO SOME RANDOM PERSON.

I realize this may be a bad idea, but I got these EUR codes for cheap, so this could potentially save me a lot of money and is worth a try, I think. I'm willing to risk it and eat a loss once. If I get scammed I'll stop. Edited October 1, 2022 by LeakySavings555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't use them in other regions' stores. I got my codes for cheap, and if I can successfully trade these for other regions' codes, it will save me money. Purchasing codes from Play-Asia or elsewhere would be more expensive for me in this case. Edited October 1, 2022 by LeakySavings555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said in the opening post, the codes are in the euro currency. Therefore, as far as I know, they work on all accounts that use the euro. More specifically, the codes were originally bought in Finland (afaik). They would indeed not work with your Danish account, but they would work with your Spanish account.

I tried googling this before making this topic, and I kept getting a lot of hits that spoke of regions but not of countries. I found a thread on reddit in which people said you can redeem certain US codes on a Canadian account, but not currency codes because the currencies are not the same. If this is true about the countries and the cash codes, it would make this thread pretty much meaningless. Anyway, I'm open for trying if someone wants to give it a go and wants to potentially trade codes.

Thread reported. I'm discussing this with the other mods. This does feel off for sure and a bit sketchy, but I fail to see how someone gets scammed out of this unless he's trading a stolen code or something like that. If the code doesn't work, leave the conversation and be done with it. I'll be honest though, I think there's a minimal chance of finding someone to trade cards with on the forums because this is such an unusual situation to begin with. There's very few people who just randomly hold on to foreign codes in hopes of trading for another currency. People who know how to get codes in other currencies are not going to go through strangers for cards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
