Discount down under
I'm reading that they are offering a 20% discount on Steam worldwide until May 1, but mine says only 10%. WTAF...?

look on ggdeals, but remove the greymarkets in your filters as they are illegal

10% for me too. Maybe double check your source that claimed a 20% discount.

Grey markets aren't illegal. That's why they are called grey.

It was some gaming site from memory, not a key seller. Game Rant maybe I think, eh.

Yeah, it was them saying Fanatical was giving the 20% discount (are they a legit reseller...?):

I literally got a 24hr ban by one of the overzealaous moderators here for talking about where I bought mine. :conwayshrug:
But uh... yeah the person mentioning 28% off is where I got mine also as a fellow Aussie.

Grey markets are fences. A lot of the keys they buy are illegal (stolen credit card fraud, resellers from other regions, etc) but they don't ask questions so they can say their noses are clean, which is TECHNICALLY true.

So you're hurting the devs either way by buying from grey markets, even if they can whistle while covering their eyes. Thankfully, the illegal parts of them have been cracked down on harder.

Just buy from an authorized reseller, they buy directly from the devs/publishers who make the same amount of money from you as they do on Steam.

Green man gaming is offering 28% if you're a gold member from buying from them previously and Fanatical is offering 20%. Both are authorized resellers.

Not to mention all the blatant misogynistic and racist posts up and down this very forum that have been up for months.

Steam moderation and forums have gotten real bad :steamfacepalm:

Not sure why you got a 24/hr ban, but Steam/Valve is literally the only reason these other stores exist and actively supports them. They don't take a cut of game keys sold off site yet allow devs to produce keys for free, so the devs sell the game at the same price to resellers who instead of taking the 30% cut steam would normally take only take some and pass the rest to you as a discount.

The entire system literally only works because of Valve's deliberate choices. I'm pretty sure you were banned for another reason or a new mod who misunderstood what you were doing or linking.

Because I've seen plenty of posts involving Fanatical, GMG, Games Bilet, etc and have done plenty myself without zero issue.
