I maybe wrong but the serial number is non transferable, unless the seller informs Stardock of his/her intent to sell the game to another user.

Hope you kept your recite. But then again second hand shops have a poor return policy, if any.

Get a refund from the "second-hand shop" or enjoy the game single-player with no patches. Those will most likely be your options.

Stardock has posted many times that second-hand games will not be allowed to register. In other words, you can't re-sell their games.
