>>9227761>don't pre-order>sold out day of release because of high demand, scalpers, and/or company fudges up the quantity/distribution>go online to buy>that'll be 150% mark-upPre-ordering just makes sense to me. If you are going to buy it anyways, why not tell them you want it and are guaranteed to get it? That way you don't have to fight to get it and probably spend more than you could have otherwise (not counting time scouring listings online, driving around to stores hoping they have it, etc.). Just cuts right to the chase.
