Bah, fuck them. Say what you want! - That's just my opinion on the subject. LOL
There's nowhere else you can preorder? I don't know much about it, as I've never done preorders before, and I normally wait a little while after it's been released to get a game.
Personally, I do not want to get the game until my next comp upgrade, so I can almost assure you, I won't be in-game for probably a few months or more. It all really depends.
Is Bioware really the right place to be asking? Just doesn't seem completely right since Obsidian are the developers of 2.
I know I'd talk to them EB Games fools again and make demands! And it appears as though you could pre-order, and all that jazz, from Best Buy.
Beyond that, there's little I can suggest.
EDIT: I just did a little snooping, I think I'm getting it. Pretty fucked up shit. Have you seen this?

This thread seems to have some useful info, don't know if any of it could help you though:
