Wheel dish is easily measurable and on a properly built wheel shouldn't be an issue. If you've substituted another wheel that you know to be accurate, and that's fine, then it's probably a problem with the wheel rather than your frame. Perhaps it's been built with spokes that are too short on the drive side and too long on the non-drive side?
It actually doesn't take much of an adjustment to move the rim over from one side to the other so maybe the LBS did a ropey job? Hard to tell without measuring it. 2-3 mm offset is a fairly big error.
