If you go back to the first page you will see that I also stated that Amazon always to this like you have just said but in this instance is much higher than what they usually price them at originally also I see it as them doing research on how many people order at the original asking price (and with any title they place on place holder prices) to work out if they can up the price a bit and see what they can get away with. I know this will drop slightly but if people are pre ordering this it will minimize the chances of a more realistic price drop. I never order from Amazon straight away anyway and I always wait past the first hurdle until they drop the price and then I work out who has the better price.
Also wont this appear on other sites like zavvi and in HMV? Can't see it being an Amazon exclusive
They dont though - everything drops in line with supermarkets, im sure they pay no attention to pre order numbers at a high price it is just their system. Plus theyre one of the only companies who a proper price promise system, pre order, get it at the lowest price, done deal. Off topic i know but still
Relax macadamia nuts, it was a joke. We don't need you to educate us (use your time wisely) about the price drop. You even said yourself "we all know this" so why bother mentioning it just to be condescending? You're on time out!Clearly going to drop in price so dont get your knickers in a twist - most new Amazon listings start very high and soon drop and im sure we all know this....
I try to use my time wisely yet read 20 odd posts about the high price and wasted a minute of my life doing so...enjoy the threadRelax macadamia nuts, it was a joke.

I hope you don't ever plan to be a lawyer. Here's what Amazon's pre-order price guarantee states:Price is just a placeholder, Mate. They will not necessarily keep the price up if the masses refuse to buy. I am a minority and have no intention of starting an anarchistic approach.
That means that if you preorder now and Amazon (Amazon.com refers to the entire Amazon family, in this case Amazon UK) chooses not to lower the price before release date, then they WILL charge you £27.99. To say that the price is "just a placeholder" is completely inaccurate and misleading.the price we charge when we dispatch it to you will be the lowest price offered by Amazon.com between the time you placed your order and the end of the day of the release date.
