Hello everyone need to ask for some help, in 1 of my GA with is 3 steam gift one of the of the winner is from East Euro (Poland) or something so when try to send the gift got this msj: Due to regional price differences, the gift you are trying to send cannot be sent to the recipient's region
already try to contact the winner to ask if possible can give some key for other game the i have and select other winner but so far no answer from him and no want to delete the GA cuz the other 2 winner already accepted the gifts so i stuck with this now, any suggestions?

Problem is, a reroll won't be accepted if it's a region issue since then chances are the new winner will have the same issue.
your options are:

  • give them a key for the game (s)he won
  • ask for deletion (if that is possible with a multiple copies giveaway)
  • take a not received

No they wont be deleted. Or you could also buy a key for his region from a keyshop.

For steam, you have to keep in mind that you can only gift to regions which are +/- 10% price difference
Just ask him if he is fine to delete and support can delete only his win.

This will get a little complicated but only for a bit.

Firstly have you tried contacting the person both on Steam and here on SGs? (Maybe they left a message on your GA which you can reply to).

Secondly how long ago did they win the GA?

Lastly, and this is the complicated bit, is your GA send via key here on SG or through Steam directly? Did you notice any restrictions when you purchased it?

I've made mistakes here too and with some patience and by carefully reading what the moderators here say they can usually be resolved in some fashion.

It is best to [create a ticket[(https://www.steamgifts.com/support/tickets/new) (Under support at the top of the screen) and supply as much detail as possible about the problem. Hopefully you will see what happened and not do it again.

Best of luck and I'm sure others will try and help too :)

The game is more expensive in Poland than anywhere else in the world except for Switzerland. Highly unusual situation you found yourself in. If you send gifts directly through Steam always make sure to exclude regions 10+% more expensive than yours.

Sadly not that unusual for Poland to be one of the most expensive regions on Steam :(

Actually its pretty weird cuz for a lot of games Poland has the most expensive prices global, but maybe thats the reason , that its more than 10% in Poland and wont work cuz of it

You must get permission from the winner to request their slot to be deleted. Take a look at this giveaway.
