Borderlands Gets Aussie Price Rise On Steam

Borderlands was released on Steam four weeks ago. Australians could buy it for $US50. A few days ago, it mysteriously vanished from the Steam Store. Now it’s back…

And now it’s priced at $AU80.

A 2K spokesperson explained the change:

“Unfortunately due to an internal error, Borderlands was briefly available for download on Steam for Australian users at an incorrect price. We have since reposted the game for the discounted price of AU$79.95 and apologise for the inconvenience.”

Discounted? Hmm. Sure, in store it retails for $AU89.95 RRP. But I’m not really sure how the new Steam price is a discount on the old Steam price…

UPDATE: Looks like we’re still waiting on the Steam Store to update. Shouldn’t be too long. It’s up.
