Default Have I got a deal for you ...

Was browsing, or attempting to browse, the Steam store this morning and found it was having a few problems showing some pages. I then came across the following...

WTH



I'm guessing that it's set up to ignore errors/na/etc when compiling the individual prices total, given the large number of "Error 503 Service Unavailable" messages I'm getting when browsing.

It will be because the original ARMA games have some value, they just aren't sold individually through the Steam store and so have no price. Put a $19.99 and $9.99 in there and suddenly you are saving $10

They were showing with a price on my end this morning. The original ARMA's were selling for $59.95 a piece. (which is WAY overpriced, likely padding the savings you get buying ARMA X)

During the Steam Summer Sale I noticed some games were cheaper (in total price) to buy the publisher collective packs (100's of games at once), than some of the games individually (even summer sale discounted).
