Sorry to bother, just need confirmation. So if he buys a $100 steam giftcard in australia and I redeem it, it'll be 100$ on my end? I did a google conversion and it says $100 aussie dollar is roughly $72 here. Will it be 100$ or 72$?

It will be converted into your local currency based on current conversion rates.

Would that be $72 or $100?

It will be 100 AUD converted to the then current USD equivalent.

So it would be $72 then?

Yes, at this moment it would convert from 100 AUD to 72 USD.

Oh, is there anyway to counter that or for him to be able to get a U.S giftcard?

I suppose he could send you the current equivalent of $100 USD via PayPal, and then you either fund your wallet with it or purchase a wallet code. Or he could try to find a U.S. based business that sells wallet codes, and purchase one from them, though I don't know how well that will work out over the Internet.
