"Works in all countries" in this case refers to possible area restrictions of the game key, I assume. Discount websites, like the one you linked to, usually mass buy boxed games in countries where they are relatively cheap to come by (China or Russia for example), then scan the product keys and resell them online. EA and other game companies are of course not overly fond of this practice, so they at some point restricted some game keys to the countries they were purchased in. Meaning, you could only play the game if the regional settings in your origin-account matched those of the game key.
The problem with temting offers like the one you linked to, is their legality. Usually the tou of boxed games state, that they may not be sold in parts. Scanning the key and reselling it separately from the rest of the box thus violates the tou.
