So, somewhat amusingly, just funded my steam wallet with my new card for a couple of marketplace transactions only to find out that the new payment method locks me out of the marketplace for a week. Does anyone know if it's actually going to be a week, or will I get access to those funds for the marketplace sooner? Had been planning to sell a couple/buy a couple cards to finish a badge off :-/

It's a week, sorry.
They really need to signpost that better.

I'd say the next 5 hours u will see the card prices go sub 10c, when people start realizing if they don't sell them now they will just poof away.

I have this since 20 minutes:

I can't buy anything else and the Snow Globe card I should earn is not yet in my inventory. Is that normal?

If you are from Brazil then you should always buy as a gift and store it in your inventory.

It's already happening.
People are buying them up incredibly quickly, tho.
Dunno about others, but market was barely working today for me, I can see many disappointed people if they wait for the last day to sell those cards. No matter the price, it might be just not possible.

If you got any foil, you are in no position to complain about luck! Leave it to us!

Foils aren't what they're cracked up to be from the outside, trust me ;)
I always get the foils for games nobody wants to make a badge for, so they just languish in my market list for months until I get sick of looking at them and lower their price to almost normal card range.

You know that's dangerous path to take, don't you? (><)

JaseC is like the help bot, and this thread is like the IRC.

Valve should totally hire me as a support staff member.

So I can totally get the Steam Master sub.

So I'll totally have the Steam version of Wheelman.

Nono, I mean like, I'll buy a game because it seems interesting (shock, horror, I know) and it'll give me a foil drop, but nobody else seems to have the game or wants to build the badge, leaving me stuck with it.

Community vote has closed, the end of this sale is near :D

I feel so relieved,I bought so many games that I dunno what will I play, now my backlog is impossible to beat.

How many of you have survived this times of steam robbery? :D

Haha, that's one way to look at it!

You sign mine and I'll sign yours. ;)

But it won't add to your game count.

Is such an existence truly living?

Perhaps I could just edit my profile game count behind the scenes to match up with the items included in the sub. :p If you click through to a Valve employee's "All Games" tab everything is listed so the "issue" of employee profiles only showing what they owned prior to activating the sub could actually be fixed rather easily, I presume.

So... Pool Nation never got a Daily or Flash deal and lost its community vote to a snow board/skiing free to play game that is in alpha stage..... They really need to scrap community votes and double up on flash sales.

I bought way to many things across digital stores during this sale, kinda silly as I was looking to only buy 4 things initially. Hopefully Testament of Sherlock Holmes pops up if there is a recap sale later today....

Oh and this will be $9.99 during Summer Sale 2014, right Activision?

Ok Snow Globe stuff...
I need some help for my first badge. I only need #1. I could trade for #2, #9 or #10.
SteamID is in my profile :)

It's a deal.

Didn't mr Orange say, we won't be happy with results?

O_O now I'm more curious!
