For anyone who's curious, the second guy I spoke with wasn't even aware that there were two versions. I had to tell him where to go on Google's site to see the difference between the two. Once he figured that out, he just simply said that there's no way I could get the international one. I'm going to try back in a few days or weeks once all the madness dies down and see if they won't exchange it. Or, maybe I'll get lucky it'll wind up being the same hardware with different baseband firmware installed.
