I've had a certain game on my wishlist for quite a while now, and at first I was waiting to see if the game's price would drop. It's not very expensive at all, it sits at $32.50 CAD. Pretty recently, however, I noticed a sale happening, but the game's price was still the same. However, it was marked as -40% off from $50, which brought the game's "new price" to $31.58 CAD.
I am no legal expert by any means, but I was wondering if such a scummy thing was allowed on the platform, and if there is anything that can be done about it? I tried looking into ways to contact Steam Support to report it, but I simply cannot seem to figure out how to do so.

I’m 99.99% certain this is an issue where SteamDB is showing you the price of something like the Deluxe Edition and Base edition on the same page.
Like the base edition didn’t go up in price, but the deluxe edition went on sale for less than the base edition, and SteamDB is just showing it weird.
Name of the game?
Steam blocks discounting for 30 days after price increase. So this isn’t possible to do. It’s likely some other product being cheaper (bundle with other games or dlcs).
Game?
