I am five minutes away from manually changing all my games prices in Kazakhstan. This is no longer amusing. It is actually a legit threat to my paycheck. #Steam #SteamSpringSale #indiedev #gamedev

For the past two years, I've had mass refunds during sales due to the official sale trading card loophole (totally about $2k by now). Recently, it's actually started sending me into deficit with Valve because of when they refund, and bottom line, it highly inflates my sales data for tax season.
Like, Valve is within their right to take money out of my sales that some idiot with a VPN refunded for something he bought *last month*. It super sucks but it's within their right. It also hurts me, though, and so far this year, my sales data shows that I've made upwards of $1k, when I have not.

There's no incentive for scammers this Spring Sale because there are no trading cards, and it has happened *TWICE* within the past four days.
Deleting an entire country from my sales area is the nuke option.
