Ok so I pre ordered a copy of SCII months ago, but the problem is that I don't want to wait 3days for delivery (that's what it says on my shipping info), so I am wondering if this is correct and it will indeed take 3days (since I've heard from some people that they got theirs on the day a game came out) or if that's not the case, can I call them and switch the pre order to pick up?
Honestly, idk what to do. I just want to play the game some time on the 27th... not in August
Idk if I can do that since the "no return policy" when they give you a beta key or w/e it was
Do they have some kind of protection on each box? like a code? If not, I can just say its the 1 I bought from the store.. I get what you mean, but if they can see its a different box they migtht not take it and I might end up with 2 games.
Can anyone confirm I can do the swap and they won't care/know I did?
I made the same mistake with Best Buy and they told me I can order another, have it set to in-store pickup, and just return the one that ships when I get it.
Actually I got help from another forum. According to a gamestop employee they do not have specific codes to identify different copies so he advised me to do what I was planning in the first place. Go buy the game on the 27th and then return the shipped copy with the receipt from the first one. As long as its not open I should be fine according to him.

Any suggestions?
go to your closest store, pre-order another one as in-store pickup, then return the one that ships to you as soon as it ships
@aGoomba: Go
