Gotcha.
 
Do Arrow take payment for pre-orders straight away?
PayPal payment taken when ordering

Credit/Debit cards payment taken when ready to be dispatched

You might see a pending transaction for full amount with Debit/Credit cards but that will drop off after 1-8 days
Worldpay then resubmit payment request to your bank when Arrow ready to dispatch your order

Arrow can sometimes dispatch orders 1-2 weeks before listed release date

If credit/debit card payment fails you get a email alert of failed payment with option to update payment method.
You can update payment method at anytime before your order starts processing for dispatch

I’ve ordered Creepshow from Arrow and didn’t have any payment taken as of yet. Not sure if it’s the same fir PayPal ( not sure if they do PayPal )
Appreciate the info! Will pay with my card then. :thumbs:
 
Really? If you don’t have funds at the time they attempt to take payment, do they give you a chance to make payment or do they cancel your order outright?
When payment fails you get a email alert with option to change payment method
You can update payment method and delivery address at anytime for your order in your account

Its only the odd time they dispatch orders 1-2 weeks early

Most times payment is taken 2-4 days before release date

If you use PayPal payment is taken straight away

I have the Flicker Alley release so don't really know if I want to spend that much for a double dip.
Yes, the book is very cool...need to think about this.
At that price, I may have some wiggle time yet. :)

Thanks for the details on purchase and payment, Paul. Just ordered mine, although I have several editions of this amazing film. Looking forward to the book - not much in print on Melies.
