alright.. ebgames and gamestop.com have a policy that you are not charged till the item is shipped... if you have an old dead credit card, or one with no money on it, you can order the collector's edition, recieve your beta codes by email a week later, and never actually pay a dime....
I looked into it, and mythic is intentionally just giving them the codes to distribute and has nothing else to do with them, because they do not want to be liable for anything, so this should still work for ingame item codes, and Live head start program, the communications between mythic and EB is virtually nill, so Im assuming it won't be possible for EB to make codes inactive after launch
