Pending gifts?

[Alizarin Crimson]

Hi, can I see my pending gifts somewhere? support.steampowered.com says there should be a pending gifts tab in my inventory. Well, there isn't and I have never seen it. Also, my inventory looks rather different than the screenshot posted on the steam website. I think I have the Beta version, maybe that's the reason?
Anyway, the gift is still in my inventory, it does not show up as sent in my gift history (gifts show up for me there once they've been redeemed). I'm pretty sure the recipient hasn't been online yet, so it's not redeemed at this point, but it certainly would be helpful to see a list of pending gifts. If an item is in my inventory I might forget that I actually already sent it. Or what if I have several copys of the same gift and then actually send one gift to two different recipients?

Thanks!

Gifts are listed under your Inventory. You can check your gift history from the "More" button on your inventory page, and any gifts that have not yet been redeemed will still be in your inventory, and will note on the item below the description which users you have sent the gift to.

Well, that's embarrassing - you're right, it does mention who it has been sent to. I didn't see that.
Thank you very much, that answers my question!

I also had the problem - the support site had me hunting all over for the non-existent "Pending Gifts" menu they really should uptdate that! I also tried to send the gift twice as there was no obvious visual feedback that the game had been gifted when you see it still sitting in the inventory. Thanks to your post TirithRR I went back and finally saw the bandly formatted and user unfriendly text:

"Sent to <persona>123456</persona>"

hiding at the end of the standard boilerplate description. A description that once read a few times you usually do not take notice of it ever again. So all up VERY easy to miss that message tacked onto the end.

A user interface fail on this not sure where to officially inform the developers...

My Buddy in Italy sent me a gift and it is taking me to the dreaded "Pending gift page" as well. I checked my gift history and there's nothing. He couldn't gift me a game because he's in a different region so he just tried to do the gift card and it is still being weird.

Hello, can I ask if you've received the gift from your friend, if so, how long did it take before the transaction was completed? I bought a game for my sister, and sent it to her as a gift. But until now, the transaction is pending, even though the money was already deducted from my account.
