Can I ask a refund for a game then buy the bundle cause I made a mistake and decided to buy the bundle?
Can I ask a refund for a game then buy the bundle cause I made a mistake and decided to buy the bundle instead? Cause there was a time limit in the sale so I asked for the refund then buy the bundle before the refund has completed as I did not want to miss the deal. Will that work?

If you are withing the 2 hours/2 weeks requirements, sure.

And only when approved, purchase the bundle.

Did you buy the bundle already before getting the refund because thats what it sounds like from what your saying.

Just wait for it to be approved. It shouldn't take long for them to get to it.

The deal is ending within 40 min though. So if I wait, the deal will be gone by then.

You will have to wait for the net sale then. If you were to buy the bundle now you would only get the keys for the games you don't already own from it. You wouldn't be issued more keys after your other purchase is refunded.

Never rely on the refund to purchase something on sale as you may not get the refund in time.

If you really want the bundle before the sale is over, you may have to use another payment method to do so.

Which bundle?

If it was a tailored bundle, I see issues.

But if I don't get the refund in time does that mean I will not get the bundle since I already bought the bundle though. Also I used the visa so I bought the game two days ago then refunded it just now then bought the bundle that contain the game. Cuase I just realised there was a bundle.

I don't think he needed the money back before he bought it. The issue was if the bundle contains Games A-C and he already owns game A when he buys the bundle he only gets games B and C. So when he refunds Game A AFAIK he won't be retroactively issued a copy of Game A for the bundle he already purchased BEFORE the refund.
