Hello fellow steamgifters!

Um, this is my first time posting a question on this forum, so I'm sorry if I'm doing something wrong.
Anyway, my giveaway for Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Director's Cut ended recently. Before sending the key to the winner, I thought that I should check his/her profile to see if he/she already owns the game (I think that's what I'm supposed to do, right?). And, to my surprise, it turns out this person owns both the vanilla version and the dlc.
What do you think I should do in this situation? Request a new winner?

Sorry, no giveaway (yet).

Yes, request a new winner

EDIT : ha sorry, I didn't see it was the original edition the winner has. You can try requesting a new winner if you want, but I'm not sure it would be accepted, as it is a different version of the game

Well, that was pretty fast. Thanks for answering!
EDIT: Well, he has the original and the dlc. Don't the two add up to make the director's cut version? Or is my logic flawed?

IIRC, they used a different engine for the Director's Cut.
I think it's similar to something like Sleeping Dogs & Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition. I don't think you'd get a reroll because the winner has the original Sleeping Dogs, because it's not just a package with the base game & the DLCs, it's a reworked version of the game, and it's a different application on Steam. But as I said, you can try.

I'd appreciate if you could let me know the reply support will give you, I've been wondering for a while how it was for cases like this.

Sure. It depends of course on how long it will take. I've been hearing it can take a while.

Not reroll requests, these take a few hours max

if it is a diff app number than you won't get a reroll

unless you said in the description not to enter if you own some part of it.

can always try...

But that's the thing, the Director's Cut isn't a package, there are no parts.
And you don't need to state anything in the description of a package giveaway to get a reroll because the winner owns part of it.
