I bought a copy of The Orange Box used. The woman I bought it from said it was a Christmas gift for her son. The realized they didn't want him to play it and sold it to me. She said she uninstalled it from her PC. When I try to install it I get a message stating that the key is already installed with another Steam account, making the key inavalid. Any suggestions?

I'm sure I wouldn't have a problem looking online for a key so I can play the single player version. I bought this game with the key, the discs and box. The reason I bought it is for the online play. The game was installed and then uninstalled. I got an email from Valve stating that they do not reset cd keys for games sold by an individual or used game store. Oh well lesson learned. I won't buy any Valve games or anything to do with Steam.

I finally got my money back the other day. I'm not going to bother trying to buy a new copy from Steam or the store. I just decided to not buy anymore games from Valve.
