Yeah, you can refund a gifted game, but it's not as straightforward as you'd hope. I had to do this once when my friend accidentally bought me a game I already had. I requested the refund through my Steam account, and after a couple of days, the money went back to my buddy. It's kinda roundabout but works.

Absolutely, you can refund a gifted game on Steam, but there's a slight catch. The person who received the gift must initiate the refund process. They need to go into their Steam account, find the game, and hit the refund button. Steam will review the request, and if it meets their refund policy criteria (like being within the timeframe and not played excessively), the original purchaser gets the money back.
