Has anyone else had this happen with the CS2 trade reversal system?

On March 13 I traded my knife to someone because they were supposed to pay me after. They never paid, so around 10 minutes later I used the official Steam trade reversal feature since the item was still Trade Protected.

Here’s the weird part:

I got the 30 day market/trade ban, so the reversal clearly triggered
But the knife never came back to my inventory
For a while the trade still showed as “reversible” even after I already reversed it
I also couldn’t see the knife in the other person’s inventory anymore

I contacted Steam Support multiple times and they keep giving me the same response saying there’s a “known issue with trade offers and trade reversals” causing missing items.

It’s now been almost 2 months and nothing has happened.

Has anyone else had items disappear like this after reversing a trade? Did you ever get them back?
