Steam community has been broken for me for hours. You should probably wait until tomorrow and try again.

Yeah, going to agree here. I had something I bought for my inventory last night, it vanished earlier today and now just reappeared. Steam community is definitely acting weird.

when you see the word "transaction", it means users are using their Steam Wallet

erm... I mean, you are using Steam Wallet (or some payment methods) to "Purchase as Gift" :P
And I replied to xboxer, he thinks that you are trying to trade a won gift.
BTW, just wait a bit, it seems Steam servers are under maintenance. Check their status here

Trying to send a Steam gift (from my inventory) to the winner of my giveaway right now. Still broken, Steam's babbling something about transactions when I'm not byuing or selling anything... >_<

Fortunatelly, gifting via Trade offers still works. Pheew.
