Hi there.
How come you can buy in internet the game for PC at € 22,41 as the game is sold at a higher price?
Is it reliable?

All depends on the site no?
Use Steam or Gamesplanet.com.

Not sure if the voucher for -20% is still valid at Gamesplanet.com - but give it a try first.

Of course...still is more than 20% discount.
Examples:
instant-gaming.com
cdkeys.com

From what I have heard those sites buy license keys in bulk, like the way companies do with their Windows licenses. They do that because they need them for hundreds/thousands of people in their company and Microsoft offers them a discount for 'volume licenses'.

Apparently that works for games as well, but I don't know the specifics for that. For instance, I don't believe Valve has to buy the game at a retail price for every single person who downloads it with Steam. It would make them bankrupt and pretty fast as well. They probably keep the retail price for customers because they need the extra money to maintain their servers.

But then again, I'm no expert on that. Just merely extrapolating here.

Yes, it seems a good explanation... something like "dumping".
