Ok so basically, this very generous fellow, who for purposes of him not being hounded to death, shall be named "Sam", gave me Dota 2 the other day, upon receiving it, "Sam" asked if i had been given two copies, one as a license for myself, and one added to my inventory for some other lucky fellow. i checked, and indeed it had been, so i attempt to spread the joy of Dota to a friend of mine, when POOF. There is no more Dota 2 in my inventory.

Has anyone else has experienced this, do you know what has happened/ if and how you managed to fix this? thank you very much

and a special thanks to "Sam" if you read this :)

Nope, I gave away one copy and I still have one in my gift list. And if I look in my steam inventory it's still there.
I guess your case is "special"

That's really weird, I wonder how Dota can disappear.

Edit - maybe somebody hacked someone's account?

it was my account, and it just vanished in the space of a few minutes, i got ready to gift it, changed the page as my mate was busy, when i went back to gift, it wasn't there. there are no records of it being gifted, or even having it at all, which is weird

Gifts doesn't give you any extra copies, if you unpack your gifts, there is always some delay, after that, your gift will disappear from the inventory.

I didn't know you got an extra copy if someone gifted dota 2 to you. I myself got gifted with a copy a few days ago but didn't get an extra one. If I misunderstood your situation please ignore what I said.

2 bonus gifts comes only from cdkeys, not from gifted copy.

This doesn't seem to be the case as he got only 1 giftable copy and he said he got it through steam trade. So it wasn't a key.
