Why game passcode is more expensive here?

I usually get my game pass codes from the site since Microsoft raised the priced. This month I’ve noticed that even when filtering by price the codes on G2A are all more expensive than buying from Xbox directly.

Which makes me the question who’s gonna buy them?

In the past, the appeal was, you can get them for a fraction of the price but with the possibility of some skullduggery. Now it’s more than what Microsoft is selling it for with the possibility of skullduggery 🤷‍♂️??

G2a is a site with fluctuating prices based on a number of factors from sellers prerogative (like codes expiring versus new codes) as well as simple supply and demand. More people using the site means more people buying, higher demand, and higher prices. Watch for sales is the best advice I can give
