I bought my preorded version of Battlefield 4 from gamestop as my first pc game. At this time, my friend had a pc but no bf4 and I happened to have no pc but a copy of bf4. I had a week until my pc was mailed to my door so I figured, why not let my friend borrow it. When my pc came, I found out that he used the installation code and my Battlefield was prettymuch worthless. He can't afford to buy me a new one but he agrees to have the installation code removed from his origin account and given back to me. I was told by salesmen at gamestop that this was possible. What can I do?
