    Default Second hand edition

    Having been unable to play RTW and another older game on my new PC, I bought a copy of ETW on eBay. It was second hand, and used only once, and seemed like a fair purchase.

    It arrived today, but I cannot install it. I had to register it with Steam, but it won't let me because the code has already been registered with another Steam account - presumably that of the person who sold it me.

    I have messaged him about it, but was wondering if anyone here could provide a solution.

    You have lost your money probably since that you need steam to play/activate and it won't let you do that

    You can contact Steam with the receipt showing his name and your name and see if they will switch it to your account. The odds of that happening are Mr. MM is probably right.
