Where did my Steam gems go?

Where did my Steam gems go? - Person in Blue Dress Shirt Holding Silver Spoon

I made about 250 gems on Dec. 15. I bid them all on a game with the miniscule possibility that I could get the game. I obviously did not. I thought that would mean that I got to keep those gems when the auction was over. But now they are all gone.

Were the gems for the auction different than the ones for the main sale? Or did I just get screwed out of all of the gems I made. Not that 250 will get me much but it would have been nice to know I had to cancel any bids I wasn't going to win.
