I Feel Really Bad

[Juni0r]

I made my friend by KF the day before it went Mac.
So he missed out on the 33% off

Is there a precedent for requesting the difference?

Like those 5-6 dollars are alot -.-

He would need to send a support ticket to Valve and see what they say.

Typically they will do it if it's like the day before. Anything else I believe they give you the: "Sales are effective blah blah date blah blah"

Oh really now?

And Valve would tell him to p*ss off. No partial refunds.

Valve's a good company when it comes to customer support, they may very well give you at least 10% off or something.

Who cares, its like 5 euros or something. Besides, never heard of someone giving money back to a person who happened to buy something just before the prize dropped down.

If they told me to re-buy the game after I asked them to un-censor my TF2 -which would be nothing more than a button push for them- since the "18+" orange box is somehow censored in my country anyway, let's say I DOUBT tries to get MONEY FROM THEM will have any success whatsoever.

You could always give him the $5

Well, buying the Valve complete pack was one of my stupidest ideas ever because I a) bought it from Germany so every single game is cut and b) it went on sale literally hours after.

I actually did ask Steam support, not surprisingly they didn't give me a partial refund.

You can go ahead and try fighting the Man over $5.

 

[Repeller]

Tell him to ask for the character packs in place of money.

Currently, my friend is currently looking for a job-- and I kinda kept nagging for him to get it. (As of now, he doesn't know about this thread because he's too proud to beg for $5.)

There are students and minors playing these games you know, so the difference could mean a days dinner or so.

I'd say it's worth a try.
