Pre Ordering Process
The procedure for pre-ordering items is relatively similar to the typical ordering process.
Features of Pre-order Policy
1. Highly awaited items are generally pre-ordered by users to get the product before it gets out of stock. 2. Buyers are charged only when the product is shipped and not before that. 3. But your order can get declined if your bank details prove that you don’t have sufficient balance on your credit card. 4. The system of Pre-order allows users to get the feature of price guarantee too. 5. You can cancel your order before the product is dispatched.
Price Guarantee Feature
This feature gives the buyers the guarantee of the lowest price possible for the products which are soon to be released.
If you’ve pre-ordered something and it’s price falls before the release date of the product then you’ll get a notification in the form of an email on your registered email address.
The reduced price will be refunded to you as soon as possible if that happens.
But not all products fall in this category.
Delivery Time
One thing which can be noted here is that priority is given to the prime members. So waiting for the last minute to pre-order a product will make it difficult to get the product on the release date.
Release Day Delivery
This is very much possible for the Prime members. And also if you’re willing to pay the extra cost for release day delivery. Then you can surely get your desired commodity on the release date.
Limitations
Conclusion
What are the payment options available for this policy
Ans.1 The available options are:
What if a consumer pre-orders something and cancels the membership for Prime do they get a free shipping feature too?
Ans.2 It is highly unlikely that a consumer will get free shipping charges in such circumstances. The reason is that the company charges users when the product gets dispatched and not when the pre-order is placed. But terms of the organization can alter at any time.
Can a shopper get a product that went out of stock before releasing it?
Ans.3 High-demand products like novels, ebooks, audiobooks, electronic games, digital gadgets, etc get out of stock while they are not released by users who pre-order them. But they are normally in less amount seeing the demand. So you might not get the desired product in this situation.
