Received/Not Received is the feedback/rep system for giveaways (and is even called 'Giveaway Feedback' in support tickets, suspension listings, and site FAQ). Points have nothing to do with feedback/rep.

Screenshot everything, report him to SG staff, and don't pay any more mind to something that's rather obviously wrong.
What you're describing is very typical site exploitation and scamming techniques. Don't in any way engage or encourage them, it's all manipulation to get what they want. You have no obligation to them. On the other hand, you do have an obligation to report them to SteamGifts, SteamRep, and Steam.

Did you really get him GTA V or did i read it wrong?

I didn't, don't have the money atm and the game he gave me was ~2 usd. I said "any game" and not "any game of the same cost", so I'm wrong on this part :D. But was such a low move and my friend asked me to "stop "wasting my time" with this. So the conversation stopped there.

Yeah, you don't need to give him nothing. Ofc he would ask for an expensive game.

If there is no trade, then we shouldn't be obliged to write +reps.
You are doing it right, though you don't have to "compensate" them back. If you received offensive comments from them, you may choose to get support involved in the matter.

I'm lost in the part that he didn't know why he was the winner of your GA. But no, +rep is strictly only for trading, not for giveaways. If the guy still harasses you to no end, screenshot your entire conversation and then create a support ticket like what Sooth said.

The space cat gif is already an obvious enough indicator that you've won a giveaway from someone. So I'm not exactly sure that I comprehend his excuse. :S

Later he said he didn't know he as the winner of a GA
Where were you hosting the giveaway, again? Here on SG, it's pretty difficult not to notice you've won something O.o
Either way, he has no right whatsoever to demand "+ rep" from you in this case, blacklist that sucker when this whole thing is over haha :D

No, afaik it is a violation of site rules. The other guy sounds like he could use a temp ban. /grin

Sorry for my Bad English, but I'll try my best.
After my last giveaway(of a really cheap game 0,1 usd I think), one of the winners thanked me and gave me a random key ("urban Pirate"). Later he said he didn't know he as the winner of a GA (because my "Congrats and happy holidays message wasn't clear enough") and asked for +rep on ST, I refused because we didn't trade and I don't think this is fair for other traders the sytstem. From this point forward things went downhill and we're pretty harsh to each other, but I received some racism and xenophobia.
I offered to buy the game back, but he already had, I asked for his e-mail or he could choose other game(He choose GTA V -.-', my fault, I know), so thinks stopped there.
I was playing PoE with a friend, so I wasn't really calm and maybe I should have ignored everything, and I'll try to be more specific with my messages from now on, but my question still remains:
Do you think we should trade "+rep" after giveaways?
P.S: I'l provide the pics if someone wants to, I just have to hide his name first.
