If i buy a few copies of a game from green man gaming will those copies of the game be sent to me through a trade window and thus be giftable to someone else? Or do they just send you a code to activate the game on steam?

I appreciate any advice you folks have. Thanks!
 
The one's I have bought in the past (mind you over 8 months ago) just gave me a CD Key to throw at Steam, thus I could buy multiple copies and give a key to multiple Steam accounts. I wouldn't call that "gift-able" through Steam, but works for a parent buying multiple copies for kids' machines (or friends even).

Has that changed now?

Only stuff bought through Steam is giftable through Steam. You would just receive a key to enter on Steam that can be giftable
 
If I remeber right green man gaming will not let you buy mutiple copies of the same game unless you make seperate accounts on green man gaming. Other wise every game I have gotten in the past, be it from GMG, Amazon, ect, they have all just sent me a CD key to enter into Steam.
