Can I purchase a game without downloading it that day?

I want to conserve the space on my hard drive by having only one game at a time. I currently have a 31GB game installed and purchased a 17GB one but I dont want to download it yet. Is there a way to tell the mac app store not to even begin dowloading it at purchase? if not, can I stop it? and of corse can I download it later? (a month or longer)

OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)

Hi tooSHINYtoRESIST,


Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.


See this article for the steps to pause, resume, and cancel downloads; and reinstall apps from the Mac App Store:
