This but straight end links
Randomly asking for opinion, do you think it's safe/unsafe/mad of me to think that I can receive the stuff I order on 11/11 in time for Xmas ?
Depends where you live
~~Cuckland~~ France
back in 2017 I received most of the stuff before Xmas
only one item arrived between Xmas and new years
out of roughly 10-15 things
@Mereck I found stuff from china used to arrive within 3 weeks when I was still in france
takes a bit longer now I'm in the UK
Well *usually* it takes 3 weeks but since it's 11/11 big sale event idk how delayed the shipping will be
I never ordered during 11/11 so far (despite being a chink shit buyer for years)
might take longer during the christmas period
5 weeks probably
there's 7 weeks between 11/11 and christmas
Gonna cross fingers and hope it gets delivered on time then, thanks
yeah last 3 and more years i have gotten probly like 90ish% of 11/11 orders before xmass
(most likely more but i dont keep track that well)
I'm gonna have like $150 to spend on 11.11, I'm so hyped
tfw no tracking updates on my chink shit
last good steam sale was so many years ago
2011 or 2012 or something
It's because flash sales went away
Because refunds became a thing. So now they don't want people buying a game for one price, then seeing its much lower the next day, or even the next hour
id say it was more due how it was abused to farm cards refund game sell even cards for dosh rinse and repeat (on steam that is)
1. Tervy shut up
2. Also shut up, you're wrong
what happens in that case
they refund and buy again?
yes
remember the coal ?
and the humble bundle craze
people were buying steam keys for 1 cent and then farming coal through smurf accounts
heck, the processing fees for that 1 cent transaction was costing the company more
hence they decided to incorporate a minimum amount you have to spend
also steam sales suck because of proliferation of grey market resellers
even if the cards were the issue, they could have just disabled card drops until after a return window
