I work at Circuit City, and whenever we come across something that some customer's trying to buy that hasn't been released yet, we get an unpleasant beep from our terminal and it says "Item cannot be sold until XX/YY/ZZZZ".
If Joe Best Buy comes in trying to do that trick, we're going to know that something's up when we see that Warcraft III's not going to be released until 12/16/2004.
