Guilford Festivel - No Mans Sky Sale Information totally wrong

[Del-Dredd]

Noticed on the Guilford Festivel Page you have Prices and Discount on No Mans Sky which is totally incorrect and False. No Mans Sky is not on Discount currently on the Store Page and even if it was so it is not £78.07 normally and with a 38% Discount down to £48.69

I think Steam messed up big time and should remove that No Mans Sky pricing or at least do it correctly if it is supposed to be on sale. 38% off the Stores £49.99 would be £31.00

What is on sale is not No Man's Sky, but the Hello Games Bundle which includes No Man's Sky.

This is because No Man's Sky by itself is not discounted. You are being shown the price of the Hello Games Bundle which is discounted by the amount displayed. It's a failing of how Steam shows discounts on sales pages.

This. ^^^
Also, the sale is not a Valve run sale. It is a third party sale by Fireblade Software and Guilford.Games, shown pretty clearly at the top of the sale page. So... Steam did not mess anything up. https://prnt.sc/_tkKBwSUHsCm

Technically, the mistake is on Valve's end. It's how the store is coded to show the lowest possible price for a product without actually distinguishing that the current lowest price is due to a bundle and not the product by itself.

True, the way Valve displays prices for bundles is odd, but if you buy the bundle, you are getting a 40% (US discount- https://prnt.sc/x0kduerzK_bJ ) discount on all games in the bundle, including No Man's Sky.

I know the discount is correct (it varies by region, 39% in mine), I said as much in my first post. Just explaining why it shows up as it does.

The advert has disappeared now in any case, if you clicked link it took you to No Mans Sky not a Bundle option and never mentioned Bundle for me. I have had NMS since release anyway so was not looking at buying it again it was just that's all it showed on the small image and it was wrong price for NMS.
