Gold, But When Shipped?

I know Madden 10 has gone gold, but do we know when Madden 10 is shipping to stores?

This is for those who like to try and abuse the mom 'n pop places who get their copies of Madden early without knowing of the street date for release.

I doubt that EA makes this information public, but do any of you have a ballpark for when it's shipped in the past, with relation to when it went gold or a certain period of time before the release date?

I've never seriously tried to get my hands on a copy early before, but this may be the year.

Complete guess, but since it comes out on the 14th I'm guessing stores start getting it around the 7th-10th.

Since games usually come out on Tuesdays, it ships the Friday before. But since it comes out on a Friday, it may ship anywhere from the Friday before up to the Wednesday before.

basically a small hobby or videogame store. for example near my house we have a store that sells comic books, magic cards, model cars and planes, old school videogames, and new video games. a store like that would be somewhere you might check out to see if they are selling the game early. because they are so small it would be pretty much impossible for ea to ever find out who sold the game early, and i doubt ea is putting much effort into stopping places like that from selling early

It's an Independent store that sells video games( not a big company like Gamestop). Also game ships a week before the release date
