Will payment be taken before I have received my order, or upon receipt of the order (once I have signed for it)?
Payments are taken when your order is confirmed (and you receive a confirmation email, with your invoice attached). When this is shown as being debited from your card or account depends on your bank. For pre-orders, payment will be taken within the first 48 hours from the date you pre-order. When this displays on your statement will depend on your bank.
