They say they don't charge for orders until shipped.

But at the end of checkout, it says "play asia will preoauthorize your credit card" after submitting order.

Usually preauthorizations are bad cause they hold the funds and keep them held until release date.

Can you confirm how they do this?

I have used them before for a couple of things but I've never done a preorder with them so I'm not sure to be honest. Given the game itself is listed as June I'm not too bothered if the preauth happens as it's only a couple of weeks. I can check my CC in a couple of days to let you know if you like?

Ya could you do that? I hate preauths because I usually have a low balance between paychecks and preauths are basically the same as full withdrawals. I use a debit card so...

Thanks man!

On the item page itself, it explicitely states "Play asia does not charge your credit card before item is in stock". And on their payment info section, it states that only Paypal orders are charged immediately, but Credit Cards you don't pay up front.


So hopefully I'm good.

Would still like to know how you fare w/ your CC in a few days...

EXCELLENT! Thank you Workshed. I found out that the "preauth" was just a 1$ charge to verify your CC (as you said above I think?) so I'm good too.

To be honest, I would not buy at play-asia cause it´s pretty expensive. It´s a Hong Kong based shop and if u compare the prices with normal stores in HK its even double the price. During my time in HK I saw the Revival Selection (the one with the artbook) a couple of times and it cost like 300 KHD (about 30€). Of course, most of u guys don´t have any other possibility to buy that stuff but I asked a friend of mine who lives there and she bought it for me this week for 200 HKD (sealed). The price at play-asia is still 45USD (about 37€) for the normal version. And shipping is not even included in the price.
