Bonus stories
Fourteen bucks is quite pricey for a couple of PDF's in Czech and English. I don't have a problem paying a buck or two, but at those levels I can't help feeling that my intelligence is being insulted and that I'm getting ripped off.

The concept behind this franchise is intriguing even if I don't care for the fantasy elements. I'd like to support it, but someone needs to revisit the pricing of the add-ons. I can buy a two-hundred page novel by Terry Pratchet for that, and get it delivered to my door in a day or two for free.

I don't know what you mean? Bonus Stories is a free bonus in the Deluxe Edition that includes the game, soundtrack and DLC.

It's showing up on my wish list as something I can buy for fourteen and change.

Bonus Stories cannot be sold separately. It's only a free bonus in the Deluxe Edition. Check the store page. It probably shows you the price of the Deluxe Edition. I have no control over how Steam displays these bundles.

The Bonus stories appear on the sale page as a separate item, priced as NA. Because you can wishlist the bonus stories stories separately, Steam makes the bonus stories appear in your wishlist with the same price as the deluxe edition.

I'll be charitable and save my ire for Valve/Steam, but you should look into it and make sure Steam is presenting your products the way you want them presented.

That sounds strange, you're right. On the other hand, I'm sure the same thing happens with all the free bonuses that come with all Steam bundles all around. I'd love to live in a world where Steam listens to me, but as a small solo developer I have absolutely no control over this. I can't even block the wishlists or hide the N/A page. Sorry.

You could probably nuke the issue by assigning a price of five dollars (or less) to the bonus stories when purchased separately., though it might not be worth the time spent creating a downloadable item.

I don't want to sell it separately, it's just a bonus for the Deluxe Edition. Many games have free bonuses for special editions of the game. It's not something super special or unique. For example, this bundle for CK3 has free items - https://store.steampowered.com/sub/1025501/. And yes. They show up in the wishlist with the bundle price. It's sad, but that's the way it works on Steam. You can try to write to them, but since Paradox can do nothing about it, I can definitely do nothing about it.
