I just preordered the game at GameStop

[Keyblader number one 40]

They told me that they might have the game a couple days before the release. Does that happen?

I know the last time I pre ordered something it came a day before the release date. It's not entirely out of the ordinary. But if you do get it a few days early be careful not to say too much.

I have a problem. I lost the receipt. Can I still get it?

I advise keeping an eye on your email, a member of my Social Media team had their KH3 Pro PS4 preorder canceled by GameStop due to low stock. 
Presumably, this could happen with the game as well.

That kinda losing the point of pre-order a game doesn't it?

Also from Gamestop, I heard a lot of monstrous stories about them.   I might have to pre-order from them.

Yeah be wary when pre-ordering from gamestop! I pre-ordered 1.5 + 2.5 when is came out for the ps4 pro. I was out of town when it came out and couldn't get someone to pick it up for me until 3 - 4 days later. They didn't have it. Why? Since I didn't pick it up for a few days they sold it to someone else.

Not really. But it depends if they really have it for you. If they do have it for you then make sure pick it up right away. I agree with Clatter411 because sometimes when you pre-order something and you're not able to pick up it. They will sold it someone else which it sucks. So make sure you pick it up as soon as possible when they call you.

I have another question... How many days do they ship the game before their release?

What?  I am thinking about preordering tomorrow and I hope that doesn't happen to me.

That's shitty if you'd already paid for it. Were you at least refunded?
I'm glad my folks pre-ordered it for me for Christmas on Amazon.

Man, you're lucky!  I wish I wasn't estranged from my folks to where they pre-ordered the game for me online.  I guess you're lucky to avoid such a situation where the game is out of stock since your family pre-ordered online.

I do count my blessings. 
As for pre-ordering online, I do hope this is immune to out-of-stock situations but I don't know how it works.

I hope not either.  I wonder if I should just preorder from Amazon.  Taxes also play a part.

I would recommend it, it's probably safest.

Yeah, but I did promise that I would use it for Gamestop.  I only have a few days until I get paid again.  My financial situation is different from most.
