Do you guys think there will be flash and daily sales this summer sale?
And what are you planning to buy?

I'm looking at buying Cities: Skyline(My reason for this topic, because I want to know if it will be cheaper in the summer sale than it is now)
and Dying Light: The Following :)

Don't really care, I'm rich

No more flash sales :( I think they want to prevent people from holding off buying already discounted titles in hopes of an even better discount or making those who already bought angry because they didn't wait for a daily.

I think it's not the waiting, but the refund. Why would you buy anything at normal discount if you can even refund it, only to buy the even cheaper one? Well-informed buyers won't even buy normal discounts, not so well informed ones will just refund or complain that they can't refund. And tbh I think it's okay with this refund system. Though I'll miss looking at the new deals :\

I don't think they do this anymore since they started allowing refunds.

We do not consider it abuse to request a refund on a title that was purchased just before a sale and then immediately rebuying that title for the sale price

Refunds killed flash sales.

Why would Steam want to bring them back and create a massive workload?

True, steam support has never been the best of help anyway

What I miss from the sales are the community vote sales. They were so much fun and an easy way to get a couple cards

I really liked the flash sales, but as others mentioned, they are gone and not coming back.
