Hello. He probably gave them away before they got bundled. :P

If you buy a non bundled game and give it away, you will get full CV. If the game is in a bundle later on, you will keep your CV.
If you buy a non bundled game that is on a high discount it may get bundled, if it is more than 95% anywhere else compared to the US price.
In both cases the bundled status might be applied retroactiely, as only 1 person is working on the bundle list and might miss something.
Edit: If you want to be on the safe side, check isthereanydeal or steamdb for lowest prices on record. If there is no discount above 90% on record, the game is not on the bundle list and is in no recent bundle it should stay non bundled for you.

If you check the list of bundled games you will see a date next to each game. If you created a giveaway prior to that date, you got full CV. If you created it after that date, only 15% of its value. It is that simple.

Hello, I would like to buy some not bundled games to giveaway to celebrate 300 sent gifts, I was looking at Left 4 Dead since it's on a sale right now, I wanted to check how much CV it gives (also Left 4 Dead bundle) and found 1 steamgifts user with it, checked his profile on SGTools and I found out that he has a lot of games given away as not bundled games, with their real value (20$ is 20$, not 15% - 3$), for example: How To Survive - Storm Warning Edition which gives him 20$ to his real CV although that game has already been bundled. I've always thought that once a game gets bundled you lose your CV and it gets to that 15% of game value. He has a lot of games given away and there are a lot of already bundled games, but he still gets CV from normal values.
Is it supposed to work like that? You don't lose your CV after game gets bundled? I just would like to know, because it seems that I don't know this site too well at the moment.
