    Is there any site that tells you the lowest price a game has ever been on steam ?
    I ask because 2 games I'm watching - Civ 5 complete and Skyrim legendary ed. are reduced by 40% to around €20 a piece.
    I only want the complete packs for the DLC.

    If not then I'll buy them on the last day of the sale.

    Very handy site for the discerning bargain hunter.

    +1 for the Enhanced Steam browser plug-in. Incredibly useful!

    Skyrim legendary steam key has been as low as £10 recently on gamefly. I'd wait it out for better discount

    I just tried out the demo for Euro Truck Simulator 2. Why is it so relaxing!?

    One of the best experiences going on the oculus rift

    if you type the codes from the old boxed versions it usually gives you most of the valve pack

    I did this for the Half Life Generations. Said it was already used so I just had to buy them again. I sent a mail to cutomer support beforehand and they said I needed proof of purchase. think I bought it back around 2002 so receipt was long gone.

    Grabbed Monaco there. Put a tenner in the wallet, I swear that's all I'm spending.

    Same thing happened with mine, tried to explain that I had bought the game the day it came out and as such didn't have proof of purchase over 10 years later

    I think they will accept pictures of the box clearly showing the key. But if it has already been used that means you probably have an old account with the games on it.

    I'm new to Steam so I have like 6 games at the moment so I hopefully won't slip into buying a tonne of games for the sales but never playing them just yet :P

    I sent a scan of the box, as requested in list of items to send. I only ever had one steam account. I'd say more than likely, the serial was reused when going so long unused. Was only last year I tried adding them to my library

    Click on the map/board game thingy just above the community choices and you should see an option in there.

    Sold a Purple Team token for a tenner. Think I made the right choice given the odds of actually winning any games.

    I've had XCom for a while, was hoping to pick up some of the DLC, but it costs more than the main game :eek:

    They occasionally spawn when you craft a summer badge. It said it was a common item, but jaysus, they're going for stupid money!

    Yeah, traded a couple of TF2 items that I'll never use for a few of the summer cards, and got lucky with the token it seems.
