dedoporno: There are lots of users who don't just want to get games as cheap as possible, but pay even more because of the charity/developer support (I've seen payments for $5000). I believe this over-payment and amounts distribution isn't available in the store - in there you just pay the specified amount and get the game.
The rather simpler answer is that most people find the BTA to be a non-deal (why wouldn't they?) and just go for the gift pack, thus boosting the BTA to ridiculous levels. I don't have a problem with this. My problem (as well as others) is that they call this a bundle.

jamyskis: While I agree that this is rather ridiculous, if I may play Devil's Advocate for a moment:

Hammerwatch is a great multiplayer title to play with friends, and four copies of the game for $8 is actually not a bad amount, as it then boils down to $2 a copy. I suspect a lot of the 'buyers' are simply groups of four people chipping in together for a $2 copy instead of having to pony up for the full $7 for a single copy.

It would certainly make more sense, as I really cannot imagine anyone in their right mind paying $7 for a game that has been half that price pretty much everywhere else (then again, PC gamers...)
I think the problem is calling this a "bundle". I'm pretty sure people would have bought it if they just made it it's own sale.

I completely agree on the "bundle" bit.

Humble just don't give a fuck anymore.

I won't lie, they have me anticipating their next "bundle". It's going to be an all soundtrack bundle from games that hardly have any music.

Yes, but was added to Steam few weeks ago under another publisher.
