So i just got done buying garrys mod and when i received the game. It came as a "Gift". This is because i bought it over at GamesDeal.com. Anyways, so i go to activate the gift so i can start installing and then i get this error "this is a restricted gift which can only be redeemed in these countries etc". Which means i can NOT play this game as of now and basically i'am out of luck.

My question to you TTG experts is....Do you know or is there anyway to fix this? i understand what it means, but i need a way around this. I've already issued a refund for it but i have to wait a couple days so i'm not sure if it will go through.

Any help?

Okay this is new steam stupid patch, because in other countries u could get game for cheaper than they would be in your country.

You might want to email the support for GamesDeal.com and ask them for a new Gift or ask them if they can give you a code from your country or where ever you are

What you might want to do is set your location to usa or get a free vpn at justfreevpn.com install the game then once its done take of the vpn and change it back

A new steam patch that does this? Doesn't suprise me at all. Companies are always trying to do stupid shit like this. Just another reason for me to hate "Steam" I figured them as a non Money Whore company but I was wrong. But yes back to the actual reason I'm here, Just e-mail them and ask them for a new code.

Your best bet is asking for a new code, as others are saying.
A VPN is not suggested. It can get your Steam account banned, and I wouldn't risk it over a $10 game.
I'm in the same boat with Dying Light, have it, but its an RU version in my inventory.
