[quote name='joeblah']i live in canada and i ordered DS 2 CE from the american gamestop site because the canadian site was out of copies, but anyway i discovered one thing on the canadian site they guarantee it to the online shoppers yet the american site only validates it to in-store customers, i called a local gamestop to see if i could reserve a copy he said they dont do that anymore (im hoping he just ment they dont do it via telephone) have i been duped?[/QUOTE]
I don't about the canadian GS site, but the U.S. stores have a cut-off date on pre-orders. It's make sure that they get enough copies in. Which it's usually a week before it comes out, so it would make sense that they told you that. Since it's coming out next week.
