Er, okay – so Steam lists the item in US$, then converts that to ZAR using their own fixed currency conversion rate, you buy it, pay with Paypal, which then converts it back into US$ (since Paypal doesn’t support ZAR yet), and you pay a higher US$ amount anyway?
Just register a US Steam account (using that VPN you’ve already got for Netflix anyway) and gift games to yourself. Until they start charging for gifting, that is.
