    Not sure, but a few days ago when I went to buy the l4d2 4 pack for $135, I kept getting my card declined, then tried through paypal and got the same message as you, after a few hours I purchased them through store.steampowered.com on firefox instead of directly on steam, and that went through fine. So maybe try doing it through store.steampowered.com on your browser?
