I bought a region locked (RU) Cod-Ghosts for a friend since he wanted it and I didn't want to pay full price, I didn't realise it was RU until i bought it, anyway to refund or to get around the region lock?

I cannot do anything about it since I am not the one selling you things. All you can do is to contact the seller and see what you could manage with him.

All RU locked gifts has into description (RU) or (CIS+RU) warning notes.
You can see it in trade windows before you accept trade, just hover mouse on purchaseable gift ;)
Anyway you can add to friends seller, how said Joto and discuss with him this moment or if he ignoring you report to steam support

No point reporting to steam support. It isn't anyone mistake/fault that OP forgot to notice a HUGEASS RED REMARK which says it's region locked.

I thought that I wouldn't have to check over it because in the Dispenser.tf trade it didn't show anything so I assumed it would be fine

I don't want be brutal, but I need to write that, You made mistake because You missed information in trade window that this gift is RU. You cant blame dispenser.tf site for Your fault.

You should be happy because You got very important lesson from life which might save You from much worse situations. I was scammed twice on steam when I started trading on steam and never more in next 8 months. Now You will pay more attention on items that You are trading for :p
