So I started a giveaway for Resident Evil 4, and Resident Evil 5 yesterday from my Humble Keys. Today the Halloween sale started and the game's prices are significantly lower. When the giveaways end tomorrow, will I be credited as having given away the full price or sale price?

You will be credited with the 15% of the normal price, since those are bundled games.

I'm really confused now, I did make a mistake and Resident Evil 5 was part of a giveaway yesterday but have Lost Planet 3 and Bionic Commander ending tomorrow (RE4 as well), but I got a full $20 addition to my gifts sent total.

the value behind the number, how many gifts you have send, isnt the value for your level.
it shows only, how much the games where worth. so it makes no difference between bundled and non-bundled games.

I see, I'm still fairly new to the site and was confused by this. Out of curiosity, how does it know it was a bundled game? If it was bundled sometime in the past does it treat it like this?

If a game is in the list of bundled games, then it is treated as bundled.
The list is updated manually by human beings, so "it" actually doesn't "know" ;)

In fact, he does not update the list: he forces his human minions to do that.

you can find the list of bundled games here: http://www.steamgifts.com/bundle-games
(faq -> "bundle games" almost at the end of the text)

if a game get bundled first time, it will appear here in this list. probably it will appear much later, but gets dated backwards so all ga's created after it got bundled, will get decreased in the value for the level (sry for my bad english^^). so you can loose some level this way^^
also important: if the price gets reduced drasticly (95% or more - in difference to the normal american price), it will get into the list as well

the Gifts sent value on your profile will represent full value, the true CV value attributed to your level is calculated differently
