When i remember right, there are differences between CD-Keys for the retail version an CD-Keys for the steam-version.

It seems STEAM knows that your key is for the retail version and therefore it ask for the CD/DVD.

GLH is correct, so there is no other way than to ask your friend to send you the CD by mail
