Steam users can get a refund “for any reason”
According to the updated refund policy, a full refund will be offered on the game as well as any DLC or pre-purchased items as long as the core game wasn’t played for over the two hours mark. However, some forms of DLC are listed as a non-refundable purchase, so users will need to keep that in mind when clicking the buy button.
Refunds will be credited within a week to either to the user’s Steam Wallet or payment method used when making the purchase.
Gifts cannot be refunded once redeemed, the same goes for movies and those banned by the Anti-Cheat system.
Valve states that it will stop handing refunds to those which abuse the system, but it does not “consider it abuse to request a refund on a title that was purchased just before a sale and then immediately re-buying that title for the sale price.”

Zensei This needs to be a thing for consoles!!! Steam is revolutionizing the gaming industry with everything they are doing.
I'm actually starting to believe that they will take over consoles altogether.
This has been the way with Consoles? Xbox at least. They don't have the '14 day trail' bit but you've always been able to request one.

Good to hear this. Though there a lot of games I have from bundles I wouldn't mind selling back that I know I'll NEVER play. Either way though. It's especially nice they won't consider it abuse to refund a full price game for a sale.
