I think this is a question of morals, as i doubt gamersgate can remove a game from your library
unless they sell your key to someone else.. and they show the proof of purchase to steamsupport and then in the end you get an asswhooping from steam

Sure they can. They just tell steam that you refunded the payment, and steam will remove the key.

The problem is Steam Support is so painfully slow. 2 weeks Minimum.

It's not steam. They'll contact the publisher who creates a list of keys to revoke and they send them to steam. This can take a week or 3 months.
And it doesnt ALWAYs happen

I suspect they can revoke the key; I mean, this must happen fairly often.
(Although I've never seen a merchant offer refunds for keys before -- aside from once as a one-time thing when they obviously screwed up, anyway. I'd also be worried about people abusing this when trading.)

Well if you asked for a refund and the game is still there gamersgate will contact steam and you're game will be deleted from you're library, i presume.
I don't think you will be able to play, why wouldn't everybody that then ? :)

And they refunded you? Which means you get the game for free?

The beth bundle and the bl2 bundle is a special case that GG lost all around.
1.) If someone managed to get at least one key from the bundle, then GG just issued the rest of the keys and called it a wash.
2.) If you were unable to get any keys, GG refunded you what was paid and revoked the order.
3.) (my case) Some people who activated a game or two and even fewer that ordered a bundle but were not given keys were issued a refund AND were allowed to keep the bundle/ issued the rest of the keys.
This was a special case and is far from typical.

Mine is a special case as well. All people in China, Hong Kong, Korea, Taiwan are affected. You can see how many people got their refund and complained on the forum.

But this is different. They refunded me because of region lock of the game in Asia.

I suggest you to write to Steam Support about that - if GG will tell them to revoke key, they might forget that was caused by wrong region. And because Steam won't know about that they might put you on some blacklist.
Besides, don't you want it gone from library so you could get working version?

I was asking if the refunded version is playable.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yup. Some people got various type of bans for activating games that they traded and then buyer charge-backed them.
It all depends on GG, Valve and mood of person who will have to deal with it. But if you'll play it for, let's say, 20 hours and Valve receive info you didn't want that game and took your money back, that clearly looks like a fraud...

I refunded Rome 2 on GamersGate when Rome 2 is still activated in my Steam Library. Will I be able to play the game when I it's released even though I have refunded the game?
