Frankly, Valve has several times violated the law, at least in the EU, already, and nobody ever had the balls to do anything.
Sooner or later one of these companies is going to eat shit in court.

Frankly this little spoiled shit writing in all caps could be actually in the right in a court of law.

EU law is srs business in Europe.
A single EU regulation is above every country's constitution, except for the grundrechte.

Microsoft got a 700 million dollars fine from the EU court of Justice.
And as "American" as Valve is, they do sell their hats in Poland and Portugal, they pay Polish and Portuguese taxes and abide Polish and Portuguese laws when they do so.
Same goes for the rest of the EU.
>>
>>339976135
Apparently his cat his Paypal card. Which is not really relevant because Steam accepts Paypal anyway.

Cat ate the game he never got you fucking retards, not the money.
>>
>>339975123
I'm going to sue you. You removed my access to steam, you fuck. And you prevented me from buying Gary's Mod through PayPal. There appears to be a transaction in PayPal, however, I cannot tell if the game is in my Steam library. I suppose my cat ate it, right?

In a panic, I removed my credit card from PayPal, which prevents me from purchasing anything through that payment method for the time being.

I'm calling my lawyer. I have nothing else to say. See you in court.

Isn't Europe pretty much the reason steam refunds exist?
>>
Buying games recently has been a little funny for me, actually.
I'll get a message saying that error occurred during payment, and the transaction hasn't been processed, but the game still appears in my library, while the cart retains the game.
Maybe the same thing happened to this kid and he's just too stupid to notice the game in his library?

>>339976309
I know only Euro law but I'm almost sure some of the stuff they do has been illegal in elsewhere as well.

First of all, EU law demanded a refund system, It is MANDATORY. If they didn't introduce it on Steam they could have been sued and they would have blatantly lost.

Secondly whenever they sell a "Battle pass" or something for Dota 2 and they say they will unlock a feature Monday, and they do it on Tuesday instead, well that means the dates of the promise were false advertisement in a way, so that's a problem as well.

Third is the issue of their systems of buying/selling crates, betting loot on games and so on. I'm pretty sure at least in ONE country where they give this service all of that weird way of putting money on the line for stuff that can be sold could be seen as gambling.

I didn't study any case obviously and I don't even know law very well, but many of the things they do actually smell very fishy from a legal point of view.
I bet a good lawyer could find something. But they need to piss off the 12 year old son of some Sultan in the middle East before that happens.

EU law DOES apply to Valve. They want to trade here, they have to follow our rules. That's why, for the longest time, Europeans could get refunds and Americans couldn't.

Europeans can still get refunds beyond the 2 hour played barrier while Americans can't. Customer protection laws are great.

I think the loophole there is that the item prices aren't set to any specific standard and are governed entirely by the users. It's like eBay in that it's not Valve's fault that people are willing to pay the $100+ asking price that some other user set on the auction board for some digital item that can be randomly acquired.

>implying American companies don't bend over backwards to please Yurop

Steam refunds exist purely due to the EU. IF Europe says jump, American companies ask "how high, sir?".
>>
>>339977380
Nope.
It's because of a directive by the EU court that this shit happened.

Aussie just helped making the process faster.
