How can I check which region my gift has

[der_Oger]

Unfortunatly I have bought a version in market forum which isn't my region. So can I check for which region the gift is for reselling it (with proper marking not such the ass who has sold me).
The Inventory sends me to this page: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/49728/.

Mean this that this is the american version (I couldn't believe that because this was to cheap for trade - maybe russian?)

There is no lock. Activate it and nothing will happen. Take my word for it.

@himmatsj check steamdb before giving your word; activation lock was added 7h ago

It doesn't show for me. What region is this? Russia or SEA?

Doesn't show what? Steam game page doesn't have any warnings at the moment; you can add it to cart and try to purchase as a gift, you will see warnings at checkout.

Also you can check https://steamdb.info/sub/41305/history/ and see that they added "AllowCrossRegionTradingAndGifting - no"

Hello,
I have it as a gift and can not activate it because of wrong region.
So can I check where this gift can be activated?

Ask whoever sent it to you - will be locked to purchasers' region.

At the moment, steam have applied the lock but not yet added the region tags - give it a few days and it will have a red message with "only available to activate in ..." or something along those lines.

You see...moral of the story (and this happens TIME AND TIME AGAIN!)...activate AAA games as soon as you get them. Do not wait. More often than not, they end up getting locked and you have no one but yourself to blame for this.

GIFTS/TRADES are LOCKED but KEYS are NOT

The thing is, they added "AllowCrossRegionTradingAndGifting = No" to several subs, but they did not specify the countries/regions.
Since every gift has stored the country of origin and CrossRegionTrading is disabled it looks to me like you cannot trade at all. Like a US gift could not be activated within Canada or a UK gift in Ireland.
