Steam Summer Sale 2017

LOL, dunno why I'm trying but been spending the last 2 hours trying to buy a game in my cart...

I should know better. Steam servers are always down the first day or so of the sales. Shame they only let the sale run for 2 weeks really.
 
Aye, Steam store is completely broken for me right now, trying to complete my purchase for 2h.

I just managed to get in within a 1 minute window when it was working. It's down again now though... Gaben please pull out the socket and put it back in again!

Yes, this was the error I had. There's nothing wrong with your credit card. Just keep pressing retry on that screen and it may work.

I bought Shadows or Mordor Game of the Year edition for £3.12. Bargin I think. Been waiting for it on a decent discount.

I've heard it is a bit boring after a while - I'll see after it downloads 43Gb lol!

Just to note that ED has some nice discounts this time:

ED base game: 12,49 EUR (50% off)
ED Cmdr Deluxe Edition: 28,99 EUR (42% off)
Horizons: 16,74 EUR (33% off)

Could be time for a 2nd account, then...and lets see what the Frontier Store says tomorrow.

The prices seem to be the same in the Frontier store except that the base game is 12.50 euros i.s.o. 12.49.

I also picked up the Witcher 3 expansion pass for a tenner, and some other misc games. I spent just over 20 quid. This was only due to paypal offering a so called "spend 20 quid with paypal through steam and get £5 off". Only to find that their offer has expired (they exceeded their budget). However, they still claim the offer is available on their website. Go figure.

But don't bother. You won't be able to add the coupon to your paypal account, it's already expired.

I don't think you can buy two copies of Elite via Steam. It will just say "Already in library" or some such. I have two Frontier bought accounts and one Steam one, no issues. Prices are identical in both places.
