So I stupidly accepted two Humble gift links from friends, only to realize in retrospect that I have the mini-bundle / DLC. (These were NOT Steamgifts wins.) I received the gift link, clicked, put in my email address, and received an activation link via email, which I clicked upon. I'm at the step where I just have to click the button to redeem to my account.

It's obviously a complete waste for these two gift links to be sitting with me, unused. Is there any way I can untag these from my account and return them to their original owners? The games are not showing up in my Humble library, so I can't see an obvious way to just gift it again.

I can't imagine I'm the only one this has happened to. Has anyone managed to resolve the same situation? Thanks in advance.

SOLUTION: Unlink your account. You'll still be logged into your Humble account, but the activation key won't be associated with your Humble account. Then just give the link away directly to someone else.

If you haven't redeemed them to your account,you should be able to just disconnect from your account on the page.Then just give the link away.

Doesn't it have a "gift" button next to it? It's a little gift box symbol, usually to the left of the redeem button (on mouse over, it says "make into a gift link" or something like that).

I don't think games you receive as gifts get the little gift box.

They don't, but you can simply copy the URL and give it to someone else, i've tried it before and it works

Yup. To be safe, I unlinked the account first, but maybe giving away the link without this step is still possible. I'd rather not take the risk given it works with unlinking first anyway.

Like jbond said, does it have this little gift picture right beside it? If it does, you can press the button, click the link given to you, copy the URL of the gift, and give it to another friend. Hope this helps :)

The receiver of a gift link won't have this option. The solution was posted above. Thanks for posting, though. Any attempts to help are always appreciated.
