Two of three lines have nothing to do with your post, and I'm not "stuffting" on your opinion, I'm just saying he doesn't want to hear it, so don't over-react.

second: if you bought it from a gamestore (used, I'm implying) then no stuff the key's already used
third: why didn't you just buy it on steam
fourth: return it to the store

You cannot buy a used PC game, Gamestop does not do used PC games because of the way serial keys have evolved to being only uniquely activated as opposed to how they used to be able to be activated multiple times and not be registered uniquely.
If it comes up as the key is used, however, you should definitely contact Steam support. They should let you know what course of action to take, whether it's they who will fix it or if they'll direct you to Activision or Gamestop. Worse comes to worse, bring it back to Gamestop and tell them that the key won't activate.

Where you buy it anyways? Can steam support renew keys if he has a proof of purchase?
