For anyone who is unaware of the new policy change for trading games for other items (such as keys) through steam needs to read this!

Policy Change

Or if you want to copy and past the link: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/tradingcards#announcements/detail/163582965920702191

"All new games purchased as a gift and placed in the purchaser's inventory will be untradable for 30 days. The gift may still be gifted at any time. The only change is to trading.

We've made this change to make trading gifts a better experience for those receiving the gifts. We're hoping this lowers the number of people who trade for a game only to have the game revoked later due to issues with the purchaser's payment method."

Steam Support Page It's at the bottom of the page.

I think it should be only when gift is purchsed by any method but steam wallet. I mean, if you bought the game through steam wallet, it can't be revoked, right?

Well you can add funds to your Steam wallet with a credit card so even your Steam wallet funds could be stolen money in some way. They do need to figure out a different way to go about it though instead of restricting things you can do with your own games.
