Honestly, doesn't really matter.

Changing pricing going forward is one thing, but 90% of companies out there would never adjust already finalized sales agreements especially in the customers favor, without at least having the customer requesting it.

Exemplary behaviour on Valves part.

Legally they have to, their business sales tax would get fucked as there would be a difference between sales figures and revenue.

All companies have to do this, but sure let’s circle jerk here.

Ive never heard of such a thing before. Like ive been buying things all my life and ive never once got a cheque in the mail saying "that fridge-freezer you bought went down in price, here's £20 back"

How many places do you buy from with regional pricing?

Regional pricing is when you start dealing with local business tax laws and this happens. This isn’t about a price change from a sale, its from changing from say UK pricing to Madagascar when they introduce regional pricing for there.

Why are you assuming this is for a sale difference?
