While you can add pre-order items to your list–most often without issue–there are some cases where issues may occur. We advise using caution when adding them to your Throne wishlist.

We typically have very few issues with pre-orders for physical items on Amazon! This means items that would be mailed to you. Some exceptions would be for third-party sellers on Amazon, however generally you should have no issue with physical gifts from Amazon.

Unfortunately, we can run into issues with some digital pre-orders. We use business accounts on Amazon which can sometimes limit the digital items we can purchase. This is especially true for game codes.

We realize this can be an inconvenience for you–especially if you are wanting to receive new games on release day! In these instances, we would recommend listing the pre-order as a payout item and then you can purchase the item yourself on your personal Amazon account. This way you still receive the privacy protection from Throne but can avoid any possible issues with getting this game code on release day!

Unfortunately we have found that some merchants can oversell their pre-orders. This can lead to gifts being canceled. There can also be production delays which are not always transparent. These delays can change the release dates and sometimes items may not release anywhere near the date originally given on the merchant's website.

For a few merchants, they also do not include estimating delivery dates on pre-orders, which can make knowing when you will receive your item a challenge.

Remember: some pre-orders sell out quickly, and we cannot guarantee we will be able to place an order for your item during that time. (This is also why we cannot order things from auction sites).
