Noticed this update got pushed just now.

Edit: Seems they’re doing this to prevent costs from arbitration. Read comment below.

    It’s false if I remember correctly. Steam prohibits you from selling steam keys outside the store for less than the price on steam. They don’t forbid you from selling cheaper elsewhere

        Why is that reasonable? Storefronts don’t get free keys from Steam, they have to buy them. After they pay Steam, they should be allowed to sell them at any price they want.

        Imagine if Ford said you couldn’t sell your car for less than what Ford dealers charge for used cars.

          I am almost certain that steam keys are actually free to developers, which is the whole reason for the policy.
