Pre-order delivery allows you to purchase an item before it is officially released. Retailers usually charge your payment method once the item is ready to ship. To participate, simply place a pre-order on the retailer's website, wait for the release date, and the item will be shipped to you, often arriving on the release day or shortly after.
