I got from, acording to Steam, purchasing the Air Mech beta bundle a bundle that I didn't purchase. The real reason is because I have acces to the Ar Mech beta on Steam because of one (two actually) Indie Royale bundle.

Yeah, I got the two free copies of Airmech as well due to my decent purchase of it. It's a good game with the potential to become something great, but it's hell right now trying to find a decent server, a player who's both near your locale, and also has a good internet speed as well.

I've got 41 items and 4 uncraftable items for trade on the last page of my backpack, and 25 crates on the first page, also for trade (or gift with trade, maybe).

Nothing on the games front, though. However, what's the deal with Portal 2 items? Can those be traded for?

I have 2 Air Mech access as well...

Also...this is risky...but I do have keys (sorry, keys only...I already have those game in my account and I don't think Steam gives extra copy for trade if I register those) for Sequence, Oil Rush, and Civilization V to trade...

Man... I wish some of you guys had Transformers War For Cybertron. I'd like to know how it is, or who I could play it with eventually, if my laptop could run it well.

It's $5 for the weekend, and I'm considering it heavily, even though I don't know if I could run it. I wonder, just because it's worth a shot, if I have anything in unused stranges, crates, weapons, metal, dueling minigames or whatever that someone might want for that game.

It's a very good game, and definitely worth five bucks. Of course, if you can't run it, it doesn't matter if it's a nickel, but the system specs should be on the store page.

Another Hat drop! And it's... another Troublemaker's Tossel. I haven't even used Scout enough to wear the first one more than once.

Would anyone like to trade for it? I wonder if that hat plus some more stuff might be a good trade for Transformers War For Cybertron, which is $5 for the next 24 hours. Alternatively, we could trade for hats I might actually like.

So how does Steam Gifts work on the giver's end of things? I was thinking of getting the Humble THQ Bundle and raffling it privately to fellow tropers. Bundles can't be split, right?

Also, I've got a spare Troublemaker's Tossel to trade, if anyone has available for trade any of the hats listed in this post.

Well I know that, but I'd like to know before I buy the bundle how I can get it on steam gifts, and if I can split it up or not.

Oh, that it is easy, just select that the game is the HTHQB and you could split the bundle using the below the average key and the keys for the beat the average games but that is against the rules of Steam Gifts.

Steam Gifts recently revised their rules since everyone was submitting keys from bundles anyway. All games that have been in PWYW bundles do not count toward your contributor total past the first $25 worth of base price value.

Okay... maybe I'm just not getting it, but if you spend, say, $1 on a $5, $25 or $500 face-value bundle, you get credited for a $5, $25 or $25 contribution respectively? That seems... kind to those of us who don't spend a lot.

Yes, you do. And there are only two uses for that contributor value:

  • Sometimes people make giveaways that only people with a certain contributor value or above can enter.
  • E-peen.

I think I'm gonna steamgifts raffle off a humble bundle, if you guys want in. Thinking of doing it as a private raffle.

Because option 1. The e-peen isn't that important to me.

Okay, I have Sonic Generations (comes with DLC) and Serious Sam 3. Does anyone have Left 4 Dead 2? I was hoping to buy it for a friend of mine, but for some stupid reason, Valve won't let me make anymore purchases. It won't let me add funds to my Steam Wallet, it won't let me buy any more games, so I'm forced to make a game trade. Oh, and if I could have Bit.Trip Runner/Cave Story + or Bastion on top of that, that would be great. (Basically, equal value trade.) Generations' is like $30, SS 3 is $40.

For trade:

  • A copy of Frozen Synapse

Would like:

  • Any of the games on my wishlist. If you're willing to trade two $10 indie games/Deus Ex and Thief Gold/one AAA game for this, then it's an instant deal. If you only have one $10 game on my wishlist, or you have any other offers, I'll still consider your offer.

Selling:

  • Just Cause 2 - 4 keys
  • Payday: The Heist - 5 keys sold

Prefer private responses by Steam friend request or TV Tropes forum mail; the former will probably get a quicker response.

Paying entirely or partially in games is negotiable, but keep in mind the relative in-store prices.

As as reminder, you can get keys in the market for the same price or slightly cheaper than in-store that will be immediately tradable.

By keys do you mean alphanumeric game keys that you can activate on Steam, or Team Fortress 2 Mann Co. Store crate keys?

Mann Co keys. Trading game activation keys would mean trusting that they'll work, which I'm not going to do with random people.
