Contact the developers continues…

As suggested by jojo here’s probably a better “document” to send out to the developers/publishers:

Dear company,

Recently Valve (the owner of Steam Store – www.steampowered.com) has “localized” prices for European customers – prices of games in US dollars were converted to Euro at ridiculous $1=1€ exchange rate – this is more than 30% higher than the actual exchange rate (1$=0,75€).

This is how the situation looks now:
– some of those who complained about the price rise got banned from the official Steam Forums
– your company loses sales because of Steam prices being higher than retail
– Valve gets all extra money
– they give your games a bad name
– Valve is ignoring their customers’ cry for decent prices
– they didn’t even made any announcement or given any sign of their awareness of the problem

So could you, as a company, try to contact Valve and discuss the pricing issue? This would benefit a large group of European gamers, not to mention your company.

To know more about this situation please go to www.steamunpowered.eu.

    This message contains some glaring grammatical errors, here’s a better version:

    I guess all these companies have a volunteer moderators on forums as Valve does. IMO posting a thread about this just doesn’t solve anything.

    Great idea. May I just suggest a correction of grammar? When sending an “officially” document like that it should contain as few errors as possible to be sure that you are taken seriously.

    Great job:D
