I bought FSX (lost the copy I bought in 2009) a few weeks ago and it was like that.
They had the activation code blacked out (want pics of where it's been blacked out and the slip of paper?) in the box and handed it to me on a slip of paper - and guess what - it didn't work! I had to use a friend's code. What ticks me off even more so is that any legit FSX key will work with any FSX copy no matter who's disks you used - so the code they gave me clearly isn't even for FSX.
I called them and they said they couldn't do anything and since I had lost the receipt, I couldn't get a refund.
I have said since them that I will never go to gamestop again.
