If ZOS didn't want it traded they'd have made it BOA so I see no reason for you to have reported him for selling a game item in-game using in-game currency.

I don't think they "registered" them when they gave them out. So there is no way to know anything about who had one, bought one, sold one, etc.

All you know...all you can verify is an non-BoP item was sold in game for in-game currency.

It's a non-issue.

He sold the code, not the item. When you use the code it's bound to you account ofc.

Greetings! To clarify here, selling codes in game for real-world currency is a violation of Terms of Service.

But is selling codes for ingame currency ok then?

Even if you didn't read any of the thread at all, the title very clearly states the question is about selling the codes for in-game gold...

I feel like ZOS isn't even trying anymore. : /

but if you try to sent 460k gold vie trade or mail to other player to make this deal - you will be banned by automatic ZOs scanner

idk how he did it

@ZOS_MollyH there are two ways which these pig codes are sold.

1. Out of game money via eBay and such for the code.
2. In game gold for the the code to me sent to the player.

Which are legal, as there are hundreds of these codes sold via eBay.

Uhhm not sure if I understand what you are saying.
So is it ok if I go to eBay and buy 10 codes and then go sell them in game for 400k each?
That would be pretty stupid easy money.

its not ok, but ZOS cant detect what players buy on ebay

so its safe

Greetings all,

To clarify this a bit, please refer to our terms of service for a full understanding of what is allowed and prohibited regarding exchange, sale, or trading of in-game content. The section referring to selling or transferring DLC and content is behind the spoiler below.

You agree that You have no ownership right or title in or to any such Downloadable Content, including, but not limited to, the virtual goods appearing or originating in the Services (such as a Game) or any other attributes associated with any Account or Services. ZeniMax does not recognize any purported transfers of virtual property executed outside of the Game, or the purported sale, gift or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in a Service or a Game. Accordingly, You may not sell, and You may not assist others in selling, Service(s) or in-Game items for real currency, or exchange those items for value outside of the Services. Evidence of any attempt to redeem Downloadable Content for a purported exchange, sale, gift or trade in the “real world” will result in the immediate suspension or termination of Your Account.

But it's okay to sell it for IN-GAME GOLD, and not "real world" money or services. Correct?

Why is it so hard to just say yes or no? : /

I appreciate your trying to chime in on the matter, but you've missed the mark entirely... again.

The OP has absolutely nothing to do w/ either of the responses you've left in this thread. We recognize that you may not sell these codes for "real world" money or services. That's not really what the OP was asking at all.

Actually, you know what? Since you've replied twice now and never said that it's not okay, and nothing that you've linked even mentions selling codes for in-game gold being against the ToS, I am just going to go ahead and assume that this is perfectly fine.

And if anybody asks me why I think that, I will link this thread to them and say that I asked multiple times and was never told it was NOT okay, even though a ZOS mod clearly replied to this topic twice and had every opportunity to correct me.

Greetings again!

We wanted to ensure that the information was not misconstrued before giving the complete response, I apologize for being unclear!

Provided any in-game content (including pet codes) are not non-transferrable (such as game accounts etc) they *may* be exchanged for in-game resources as any other game content (like crafting materials and non-BOP items)

You may sell your bristlegut pig codes for in-game resources.

Thank you again for your patience while we got you a clarified and complete response for this matter.

Oh wow didn't expect that. Thanks for clarifying this
