accidentally got a game for myself instead of gift for my friend.

[Dorno]

So i was gonna get this game for my friend, but when i bought it, i realised i bought it for myself instead of my friend. could it be possible to remove the game off my account and give it to my friend or getting a refund so i can buy it agian. note that i dont play the type of games he plays at all, so this is a terrible inconvenience. any help appreciated.

it is about your store transactions.

It's a 4 year old thread.

If this happened to you just refund the game to your steam wallet and buy it again making sure you do so as a gift for your friend.
