Sounds like your VPN is causing some errors in the registry. It is not Steam, as long as you have internet, Steam will download it. Maybe use a different VPN or check bugs on the one you are using. Since you say you are losing connection after you activate your VPN, it has to be that.

Steam's SSA states that you are not allowed to use a VPN with it.

Why do you need to use a VPN anyways?
but you don't even have saint's row 3 in your library :\ .. activating keys that are not for your region is frowned upon by support.

Your website is not an authorized reseller of steam keys.

It doesn't matter, you are trying to circumvent regional restrictions.

You risk your entire account to save few bucks?

Region restrictions are in place for a reason and by using a VPN to active a key outside of that region is probably going to lead to trouble for you.

Beyond that, selling just the key from a retail box also violates the user agreement for the game from the publisher. All retail key must be transferred along with ALL the physical materials.
