For me, it is working, but just laggy as hell. Installing Endless Space and Of Orcs and Men now.
Amazon should really advertize their sale more, if it wasnt for the thread I would have no idea,
imo their big advantage is that they tell you exactly how long the sale runs and when a game is on sale, compared to Steam where it's a surprise (which is part of its charm). If they just advertize it more, make it more clear that codes work on Steam, and maybe display a schedule with a few surprise deals, it would be a lot better

That's most likely a mistake
EDIT: JaseC'd
If you look at the store page of a game you bought but doesn't show up, does it say "You already own XXX"?

Does (US) MorningGAF want to trade anything for Dota 2 keys?

I'm having the same problem, can't download anything or use the "messenger"
That's unfortunate, but given you have evidence of a successful purchase, you shouldn't have any issues seeing the games added to your account if need be (though it goes without saying you may be waiting a while). This post isn't exactly helpful, but, hey, some reassurance isn't terrible.

I'm still ruminating over whether to pick up SSFIV Arcade Edition. Will my X360 Mad Catz arcade stick work on the PC (or alternately the PS3 one I have)?

Guild Wars 2 worth the $30 Amazon is charging? Sorry, I know it's not a Steam deal lol.
I cant wish people Merry christmas
And I voted for Towns.
I knew it was a mess at launch apparently, but now that I see that it is STILL a mess, I feel bad voting for it. Definitely wont be buying that.FlutterPuffs

My friends love it, some say it's their personal GOTY.
They do sell 2012 but I checked their twitter and it does seem to be 2013 going on sale, an error on their part I guess:-

Also how much does FM2013 show up for you Americans right now? Amazon still works out cheaper.

no if I go to the store page it says add to cart
it's why I got worried.
it even says it for SR3 and that's the only game that shows up

Throw up your SteamID, it's a deal!
Best RPG (non-Bethesda, non-Bioware) that I have played in a long time.
Although this isn't exactly relevant considering the games have yet to show up in your library, for whatever reason, in some instances, you won't see the "You already own ..." notification despite owning said content. Steam doesn't run a final subscription cross-reference until you go to confirm a purchase, but the store is supposed to pick up on this beforehand.

Decided to bite on Borderlands 2 just for the sake of buying something. Hope it's fun!

Oh Terraria on sale, not sure if I should get it or not, I remember it was 2,50 during summer sale, and next year its coming to consoles.

Hopefully. I also have a 2.50 credit on GMG, so that's another reason.

As a depressed Liverpool fan, tomorrow's offer for Football Manager 2013 on GMG might be impossible to resist. It's the only way I'll ever enjoy success as a Liverpool fan, and that's by my hand steadying the ship and steering us to quadruple glories in the fantastical realm of Football Manager 2013 (Consumer of Souls DLC included).
Only if you haven't played the superior Guild Wars 1. But compared with games like WoW it is the better game.
it did say "You already own.." last night though
i also edited that Saints Row 3 shows up in my library, but on the store page it doesn't even acknowledge that I own it.
Yeah, this is pretty annoying.
(In case you're not familiar with the forum software, clicking a user's name will render a drop-down menu, among which will be a "Visit [user]'s homepage!" link, assuming the setting has been used, which, in my case, is... the case. I say "case" a lot.)

I use my X360 Mad Catz arcade stick to play SSFIV on PC and it works perfectly.

At least Benitez isn't your manager anymore.
I wouldn't play that on a console in a million years. Once you play it on PC and sink 50-100 hours into it, you'll see why. I paid $10 and have 67 hours into it before I formatted (computer issue) and forgot to back up my nearly finished game (maybe 10-20 hours remaining). Going to replay it on a smaller world, next time. The game is massive if you try to do and get everything.

Had a few problems after buying Anno 2070, it was the first game that didn't instantly show up in my library, and I had to wait 10 minutes or so before it finally did. Also, had the "no internet connection" error as well when trying to install it. Seems to be working ok now, though. I guess everyone has slept off their Christmas dinner and is itching for some Steam bargains.

Someone at Amazon cocked up and gave me a spare code for the Abyssal Forge DLC for Darksiders 2. First to quote this post gets the DLC (make sure you own the game first, of course).
Yes, 360 should work flawlessly. PS3 might have problems with certain motherboards, but is mostly fine.
How strange. The only possible explanation that comes to mind is that -- aside from Steam simply screwing up due to the Sale traffic -- for some reason, your account wasn't subscribed a key.
Some will say no, but I'd say so yeah.
Might & Magic as it might make all of the franchise go on sale. Or Red Alert as there are a couple games there that look good. Civ 4 is on sale every 2nd day.

It amuses me greatly that he's Chelsea's manager, much to the disgust of all their fans. His transfer buys were patchy, to say the least. It also amuses that they bought Torres for so much (with the unpatchable no scoring glitch).

You do realize it says in the information below "Requires Steam Client to activate."
