I got a Rocket League key from 2016, why in the world would anyone want that? Can I see if it's redeemed without using it? If you want to broker for a cut send me a DM and we can start figuring out what's in here, I probably have other things too.

Probably because Rocket League was removed from Steam after Epic bought the developer, and your key may still be usable on Steam.

Because it’s the only way to get it on Steam now… Bonkers I know. Sure, can do. But, no way to see if it has been redeemed aside from messaging Steam. Did you reveal it yet? If not, no worries.

Yeah I'm looking at it. And I found my receipt for the game from a year earlier so I couldn't have used it. But it's been so long and that's not a trivial amount of money I'd want to be sure somehow before I wasted anybody's time.

Unless you have used it, it will still be active/usable. If you haven't gifted any games away (either with their gift feature or by giving codes away), cross-reference with your Steam library to make sure. There's also a script to show all the games you have unrevealed on HB: https://www.reddit.com/r/humblebundles/comments/inm60w/meta_how_to_easily_pull_a_list_of_all_your/
