I read an article about purchasing the option to buy games from a website called firstdibz.com. The article implied that these games may be ones not even out yet. For instance, Halo 4 and MSG4 (which is confirmed to be released but keeps getting set back). By purchasing an option they will ship the product to you when it comes out for facevalue of the game and if it isn't released you'll have that money refunded. What do you guys think? Is this a viable market? Would you buy an option for a product that hasn't been given a set release date?
