Got sniped

Yeah that is clearly going to be eaten by the machine. (Wasn't me that redeemed, no use to me, not living in the states).

You should have went for a name in a hat approach (using software or an actual hat lols).

I believe that gift card codes are longer.

Not work here, i use other money, but it's ok.

yes a real code would be longer AND would convert to local currency

OP may have wasted $170 if he actually bought those gift cards himself (I doubt it).

Codes from physical gift cards actually do look like this.

This is no longer true for physical gift cards (Steam Wallet Codes).

Are there country restrictions on Steam Wallet Codes?

Yes. We have made some changes to how Steam Wallet Codes are redeemed on Steam, as part of our ongoing effort to reduce scams like the ones explained here. These changes should not impact regular customers who enjoy using Steam wallet codes they purchase at retail in their local currency.

Each Steam User Account is associated with a specific currency, which you can see in the top right corner of your Steam Client. Going forward, you may encounter an error if you try to activate a Steam Wallet Code issued in a different currency than the one of your Steam User Account.

If you have questions about your ability to redeem Steam Wallet Codes, please contact Steam Support. If you are concerned about the legitimacy of a Steam code you have purchased, you should ask your retailer.

Only digital gift cards purchased on Steam will automatically be converted into another currency.

no offense but your codes were most likely snagged by bots especially since you didnt obfuscate the codes

As long as the OP is satisfied that someone got it, that should be good enough. It would of been nice for whoever claimed it to say, but lets face it, hardly anyone does that.

they were already used before the thread was posted

I haven't words to say.

Was it a physical gift card with the code printed on the back?
