Can't gift from Switzerland to a french friend?

[justpierre]

I'm trying to gift to a friend Cuphead, but it say it doesn't work because of the price difference? What can I do? I tried with steam wallet, paypal and my mastercard and it just doesn't work? Can't I just pay the difference?

Try getting it from a legit game site. https://isthereanydeal.com/ lists ones that are legit.

Unfortunately, no. What I would do is buy a key from Humble Bundle and then give your friend the key.

You can purchase A cd-key

If the difference in price beween the 2 Steam stores after currency conversion is greater than 10%, you can not gift the game. Lower or higher...

This was changed a while back.

It's 20€ in France and 20F- in Switzerland, 20F- is around ~17€ but I wouldn't mind paying the difference if I can gift it... What ever, I bought a key on G2A. Thanks guys!

Let's hope your friend gets to keep it, as those unauthorized resellers tend to sell stolen goods as well, which gets revoked later.

Why didn't you follow this advice? Or isn't your friend worth it getting a legit copy of the game?

Amazon was displaying that the game wasn't available currently and I didn't know the others, I bought multiple key on G2A already and never had any problems, will see in the future.
