Yup. My guess would have been that exploitation would be in there somewhere.

Yikes...that is a bit high. But, I'll probably be a sucker and bite the bullet on this one.

Got the same email and initially, as soon as I saw the date, I thought it was pushed back to Dec 8.

Well that's what happens if you insist on writing the date the wrong way round

England was around long before America. It was you guys who decided to do everything different for absolutely no reason.

Why don't you do your times in seconds, hours and minutes?

I'd call this "fair warning" to the people to HAVE MONEY IN YOUR ACCOUNT! At least this one isn't sold out yet so anyone who isn't ready will still have a chance to rectify their $$$ without blaming Zavvi

Good move on Zavvi's part, possibly in reply to previous issues

The regular edition isn't out until September, so it won't be coming in August. Despite bringing if forward, TJB steel is still out a week after the regular edition.

Of course the ultimate work around for this is pretty simple: When you preorder something, have the money in your account. Act as if it's already been deducted, then folks won't have to go down that Peter/Paul road.
