Nah. Most of us are aware that the game isn't on the shelves til
Turbine, who just aquired the rights, get the mechanics together to
get more boxes on the shelves.

Which is what you should do in the perfect world. They sold you a
used game as new. The problem is there aren't many unused games left
in the known world.

That is the form letter to reclaim an old account if you forgot the
needed information. Since you aren't the original owner you can't
give them the correct account name or CC number.
The only thing you can do is return it to the retailer for a refund or
replacement.
