I thought digital codes were against the terms? Years ago I would sell unused humble bundle codes on ebay and it gave me an idea to make a bot to do it full time. I spent half a year making this platform that would compare prices on code wharehouses and then automatically list ones with high margins on ebay. The rules technically said you couldn't do it, but there were thousands of codes selling every day, so I figured maybe it wasn't enforced?

I started making decent sales the first week. But then I would get random chargebacks and even calls from somebody's poor grandma or grandpa asking who I was and if I could refund their ebay account. It became clear that there were thousands and thousands of hacked ebay accounts that were exracting money via codes to then sell on other platforms.

Eventually 90% of the purchases were fraud and I had to shut it down. Not before ebay banned me from the platform.

TL;DR - don't sell codes on ebay, ebay has no control over their rampant hacking problem and that's why they're super stringent on digital sales
