Hey everyone, I just tried to make a trade with someone for Gearcrack Arena, and when I tried to activate the key, it said it was Invalid (not just already used, but completely invalid).

I checked the community discussions on Steam, and it seems other people have the same issue (read this thread):
https://steamcommunity.com/app/301480/discussions/0/618463738390676465/

Just thought I'd put out a PSA that these keys appear to no longer be valid for anyone. :(

Does that mean my Gearcrack Arena gift now costs 50 TF2 Keys?

Is there "Add to my library" button on your gifts?
I suppose that gifts should be non-valid too.

Went to check it, it does. I can send or activate the gift to my library.

The dev denies revoking the keys, so why in hell are they invalid?

Key/store status set to "Unavailable" I guess that prevents activations.

I appear to have 3 keys from different sources + 2 indiegala gifts that I'm not sure will even generate keys now. Will try them on alt. account later if I don't already have the game on there (unsure).

Try them on your main account, if they're invalid, they'll show up as invalid; if not, it'll say you already own it.
