Title: question about preorders
Post by: Kalahari Inkantation on February 03, 2008, 06:03:13 AM
When you preorder a game and put X amount of money down to be sure you get a copy, does the store keep X amount of money, and you still pay full price for the game, or do you only pay (price of game)-X for it?

I want to preorder Brawl, but I don't want to spend $55 on it. befuddlement

Most places put the deposit directly to the game. If you deposit $10 for a $50 game, you only have to pay $40 plus tax when you pick it up.
