A thread for any pricing errors or glitches in the summer sale! Generally, check prices right as the previous batch of games on sale rolls over to a fresh batch, as this is when errors are most likely to occur. They usually last for mere minutes, so snatch them up immediately if you see one!

This list does NOT include negative prices, as those are always made nonpurchaseable in your cart.

Just to help everyone cycle through all games must more quickly and efficiently, here is a link to the Steam page with ALL games sorted by price: List of all Steam games and current prices!

Glitches spotted so far:

Naruto Ultimate Ninja STORM Revolution: 82%
Chroma Squad: 85%
Car Mechanic Simulator: 95%
PlayWay's Sim Bundle: ~95%
Rogue Legacy: 86%
Dead or Alive: 60%
Lost Planet 2: 60%
Microsoft Flight Simulator X + 2 Cargo Crew Twin Pack: 80%
The Escapists: 51%
LA Noire Complete: 91%
Borderlands 2 GOTY: 84%

How did you do the steam search for lowest price without showing f2p games?

I just went down on the home page, clicked the tab with games under $10, then clicked some blueish button that shows all games under $10. It's in the very bottom-right of my screen, way down at the bottom, but before it starts scrolling through all the rectangular icons of games on sale.

PlayWay's Sim Bundle was -95% just to let you know. :)
Maybe you should also add to the main post that these glitches dont work anymore.

Thanks, and thanks again. I thought I'd already added that bit, that they are brief, ephemeral deals, but I guess not. To the editing board!

"Refunds are designed to remove the risk from purchasing titles on Steam—not as a way to get free games. If it appears to us that you are abusing refunds, we may stop offering them to you. We do not consider it abuse to request a refund on a title that was purchased just before a sale and then immediately rebuying that title for the sale price."

For games you bought up to 6 months ago. Just don't abuse the refund system or they won't refund you games later.

I'd only have one game to refund anyways but 5 bucks are 5 bucks. Bought in February.
What did you do? Refund and simultaneously buy it on sale and how long did it take etc?

No, i asked for a refund coz even with my computer having the requirements the game wasn't working. I only had 40 sth minutes on it, these were spent trying to find a solution.
They replied my mail within an hour or two. i was refunded 6 days later (15$ just 2 days before the sale :D )

I asked for a refund saying that Stranded Deep is the only game I could even refund anyways and that I want to spend the money I'm saving on the summer sale.
One hour and they accepted my request. Gonna get it refunded to my Steam Wallet (cause I wanted to although I payed with PayPal, will probably be faster this way too)
Thanks for the advice again! You got me 5 bucks for Duke nukem or Shadow warrior!

"... Valve will, upon request via help.steampowered.com, issue a refund for any reason, if the request is made within fourteen days of purchase, and the title has been played for less than two hours. There are more details below, but even if you fall outside of the refund rules we’ve described, you can ask for a refund anyway and we’ll take a look."
