pre order price difference from market place to maunfacturer

From Amazon UK:

Please note that there are no official prices announced for Xbox One products. The stated pre-order price is a placeholder. With our Pre-order Price Guarantee, you can order now and if the Amazon.co.uk price decreases between the time you place your order
and the release date, you'll be charged the lowest price.

I bought from Microsoft store and there policy states that they only charge when the item is shipped here is the exact quote from Microsoft store site

Pre-Order Price Guarantee

The advertised price for pre-order items may increase or decrease prior to the date the product is released to the public. However, you’ll only be charged the lowest price offered between the time you place your pre-order and the date the product is released
to the public. Also, we won't charge your credit card until you download the product or we ship it to you.The Pre-Order Price Guarantee only applies to pre-order items and prices offered on the Microsoft Store.
It does not apply to items and prices advertised by other sellers, prices inclusive of taxes, shipping charges, or typographical errors. For pre-order offers based on an estimated price rather than the official price, the Pre-Order Price Guarantee only applies
to and will be based on the official price for the item when announced.

[/quote]Have you ever pre ordered from Amazon or anywhere else?

Depends where you ordered it from?

Most places do price guarantee and refund if there is a difference

RAIST I'm not wrong:

Pre-orders were available prior to this as they were all over us and uk sites with price placeholders or with TBA in place of a price.

This forum had threads of people that had pre-ordered already but no price had actually been confirmed.
