I'm thinking of buying CS:GO. Full price here costs PHP 420 ($9). I found a SEA CS:GO in G2A for PHP 335 ($~7). But I've heard that Steam's summer sale is coming on the 23rd, so I'm interested as to how cheap CS:GO would cost when the sale hits.

The lowest recorded price for your currency was ₱136.77, which is an 82% discount. This price was from 4 months ago (not sure what sale that was).

If you want to get the game, might as well just get it. If you can wait, do that. Really, you will probably enjoy the game enough to make it worth the money

Do you think the price would have a high chance of dipping below PHP 250 when the 23rd hits?

 

I only have PHP 500 as my savings for both CS:GO and skins (I'm a high school student), so of course, the cheapest the best.

It will be between the price of 5-7.5 USD

Well if you say it like that, I would just wait the 4 days until sale. Keep in mind the 82% is probably a flash sale, which go on for a day, but sometimes a couple of hours. Keep watching the store page (or add it to your wishlist and check your mail) and buy it once it hits 75% or lower.
