It sure is, only certain games (mostly Valve games) will put a copy of the game you already own in your inventory.

I wondered the same thing about HumbleBunde. I haven´t bought anything from them yet so my question is:
Is it possible to activate some of the games from a (Humble) bundle yourself and give away the rest ?
I´d particularly like to know: Do you have to declare the whole bundle as a gift when you buy it or do you get to choose which games you want as Humble-gift links ?
If you have to declare the whole bundle as a gift do you still get seperate gift-links for each game thus making it possible to use the ones you´re interested in yourself and giving away the rest (seperatly) ?
And what about games you already own: Let´s say I´d buy the current Humble 11 Bundle but already own Blackwell 1 - 3: Would I still get Humble-gift-links (not steam gifts) for them or do you miss out on those automaticly if you already own games from a bundle?

yes

latter, but you can do the former if you're feeling generous enough

no, selecting gift option makes the whole bundle into a single gift link, you only get separate gift-links if you buy it for yourself
And what about games you already own: Let´s say I´d buy the current Humble 11 Bundle but already own Blackwell 1 - 3: Would I still get Humble-gift-links (not steam gifts) for them or do you miss out on those automaticly if you already own games from a bundle?
yes - redemption is manual and the games are only added to your steam account when you click on a button

Thanks a lot for that quick and precise answer :D

To add to the above answer, some of the humble bundles give you a single key for each tier. Eg. The Sega bundle, so the tier 1 ($1) would give you Alpha Protocol, Company of Heroes, Rome: Total War, Hell Yeah! Wrath of the Dead Rabbit. If you owned any of those in that tier, activating that key would not grant you extra copies, neither on Steam nor humble. They will put a note at the bottom when there are single keys for multiple games.
Otherwise, usually the keys are separate. Buying a bundle as a gift will give you one gift link for the whole bundle. Buying for yourself or redeeming a gift bundle will allow you to redeem separate keys or create gift links for each key separately. (you never see the actual keys)

You can't split up Steam collections. They are a single ID, and even come out as a single gift item. Activating it registers every game on your account.
You would have had separate keys if you had this though: http://www.bundlestars.com/all-bundles/victoria-complete-bundle/ (was cheaper too)

As far as I know, any gifts you buy on Steam come as one single gift. When you redeem a gift containing more than one game, all of them get added to your library, you can't choose which to redeem. If you already own any of the games, you won't get gift copies of those that you own - there are some exceptions, such as most of the Valve bundles will grant gifts for games you own.

I want to buy Victoria Collection Bundle from which I would be happy to give away Victoria 1. But how do I do that?
As far as I understand, if I purchase the bundle for myself, then every game in the bundle will NOT be giftable. If I purchase the bundle as a gift, then I would not be able to play any game in the bundle, since I'd have to gift the whole thing. Correct me I I'm wrong. Any useful peace of advice will be appreciated.
Thanks
