not sure if this is the right place??..Was this the STEAM Forum?..STEAM Question
Heya gang,
Firstly, is this the old STEAM Forum?..Coz I've got a STEAM question and can't find the Forum...??? Anyway, if it is the old STEAM Forum, can someone please tell me if I can gift a game on a weekend???..or does it have to be during the week? It's my son's birthday on a Sunday, and I want to gift him COD BlackOps on the Saturday night so he can play it on his Birthday on Sunday. Does anyone please know? Cheers.  *EDIT:- Doh, i just noticed the Prefix thingy...AWESOME!!!!

You can...sometimes steam can be flakey for gifting.
I've gifted my son something and not had it show up for days. My best suggestion for guaranteed gifting at a specific time is to gift it to his email address not his steam ID (if his email is verified on steam it's instant after clicking the link in the email, if different he'll prompted to create/login to an account)

As I said...sometimes flaky. 98% of time it's been instant for me but a few times it hasn't shown at all and I'll go into "gift management" and resend to his email. Never, ever had a problem with email gifts, occasionally had issues with in client gifts

When gifting now, you also have the option to buy a gift now, for example when it's on sale, but actually send it to someone later ("Store the gift in my inventory to send later").
Perfect for buying and saving for birthday / Christmas etc.
