Paypal as well or not? What price?

Nah I'm looking to get something new to try. Sorry.

 

[StuBurns]

I forgot we still have dailies every day, awesome.

 

[Des0lar]

See you come Winter Sale guys. 'Twas fun!

 

[HBroward]

I forgot we still have dailies every day, awesome.

It just means we get to listen to people complain the next six months how X was cheaper during the Summer Sale.

[Yaska]

And that was the end of Summer Camp \o/. Steam page back to normal.

 

[anddo0]

I literally just hit the purchase button on JC2, Jagged Alliance 2/Disciples pack and Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines. Hope I don't regret these, as they were my on the fence games.

 

[The Elite]

Fin.

 

[Princess Skittles]

It just means we get to listen to people complain the next six months how X was cheaper during the Summer Sale.

Or how the daily deals are just shitty indie games.

 

[HBroward]

I predict there will be nothing.

Spoiler:

I win.

Yes, you did. Unless they throw something up in a couple minutes, but I would still grant you partial victory in that case.

 

[Relax.MX]

&%$# you steam:

3 last minute:

Just Cause 2, AC2 y Sactum

*$#@ You...

And that was the end of Summer Camp \o/. Steam page back to normal.

Which means we need to wait until the winners for the grand prize have been announced. How long did it take after the winter sale?

 

[Sanic]

This was fun, see you guys this winter where we'll need two threads!

 

[Dreavus]

Some last minute Magicka DLC purchases for me (I also gifted said DLC to my brother. Should be fun times ahead!)

 

[Yaska]

Well I don't really care, chances of winning are so low anyway

 

[The Elite]

I see some of the deals are still up.

NOT TOO LATE!

 

[Cfuentes]

Finally.... thanks god....

 

[froliq]

My wallet will be thankful that it is over

 

[Toma]

I see some of the deals are still up.

NOT TOO LATE!

Yup, they are all still there. Only the banner is gone.

How soon people forget that about half a week before the initial announcement for Terraria Andrew “Redigit” Spinks announced that Nintendo lawyers had contacted him BY PHONE and demanded that he take down his remake Super Mario Bros. X and hand over his site and his youtube channel. But then suddenly no mention is made of this claim again, his site and youtube channel and any download mirrors are scrubbed and pristine just in time for a new major legitimate announcement. yeah...

Nintendo legal threats...It wasn't even a plausible story.

So now when there is a sudden shift in a sales price after five hours and it is blamed on an improbable "accidental" pricing error instead of willfull decision? yeah...

 

[Island]

I can rest now...

 

[Conceptor]

And so it ends. Onto Winter!

 

[Lord British]

1468 specials showing for me still - all the Summer Sale stuff, but when you add them to the cart they show up at normal retail...

 

[Stitch]

no daily deal? lol

 

[Princess Skittles]

Looks like nothing, I guess a short deal break is in order, after all.

 

[KarmaCow]

no daily deal? lol

This is bullshit *flips table*

 

[Toma]

Looks like nothing, I guess a short deal break is in order, after all.

Yay!

 

[The Elite]

Yup, they are all still there. Only the banner is gone.

I picked up Vampire: The Masquerade after 1. Decided I should take the plunge.

Vampire showed up at sale price.

 

[Talyn]

1468 specials showing for me still - all the Summer Sale stuff, but when you add them to the cart they show up at normal retail...

I added Eschalon: Book I to my cart and bought it for $3.75 just now. That was the sale price so seems Valve is being slow to change some prices.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

Well, it was okay This Christmas will be pretty awesome, I say.

It happens a few different times every damn sale. This isn't some conspiracy, he had nothing to gain from what happened.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 (bought before christmas for PS3, haven't played it yet)
Borderlands (bought vanilla, sold that and then bought and GOTY on PS3. haven't played much yet.)

GTA IV Complete. (bought vanilla, sold that and then bought Complete Edition for PS3. maybe 5-10 hrs played on PS3)

 

[MNC]

Nah I'm looking to get something new to try. Sorry.

Would it have been of the 2,50 variant or the 4,99?

 

[Boss Doggie]

Aww fork, I didn't win. OH well.

 

[Petrie]

Would it have been of the 2,50 variant or the 4,99?

I got this one at $2.50 so I'm not looking for anything huge in trade obviously.

 

[gibration]

Well, it was okay This Christmas will be pretty awesome, I say.

I hope to build my pc by then so yes, it will be awesome.

 

[Yaska]

Aww fork, I didn't win. OH well.

I don't think they've even drawn the winners yet.

 

[Toma]

Aww fork, I didn't win. OH well.

How do you know already?

 

[HBroward]

Aww fork, I didn't win. OH well.

The drawing isn't until tomorrow.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

Aww fork, I didn't win. OH well.

I don't think they have picked the winners yet.

 

[MNC]

I got this one at $2.50 so I'm not looking for anything huge in trade obviously.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. I just bought mine at 5$. oh well! You win some you lose some.

 

[cicero]

BTW, thanks for the great threads, Salsashark. I read through almost the entire thing, minus ten pages or so. Also, thanks to everyone who took the effort to write those great impressions that peppered the thread. Really helped inform my buying decisions and kept me from picking up bombs.

 

[gdt]

No daily deal?

 

[Princess Skittles]

No daily deal?

Not so much.

Somebody posted that there was a two week lull in the usual sales after the Christmas sale.

 

[KScorp]

I got this one at $2.50 so I'm not looking for anything huge in trade obviously.

Sent you a PM.

 

[The Elite]

Don't count your chickens until they've hatched.

X3: Terran Conflict was a great summer sale pickup indeed.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

The tickets still appear on the profiles, I guess they will disappear when they announce the winners.

 

[HBroward]

X3: Terran Conflict was a great summer sale pickup indeed.

I meant X = random game, but yes, I am also very happy I finally picked it up.

 

[cicero]

Except more money... Assuming that he assumed it wouldn't backfire like it did and maybe hurt sales. I never saw a pricing error on Steam during a sale that lasted anywhere near that long. The longest has always been around 30 to maybe 40 minutes. Five hours makes an accident seem incredibly implausible.
