Most likely if the charge goes through they don't care. But with how much pre orders are selling out within seconds of going live and it being rare that somebody actually has a order to through something has to change. How I don't know because even if you do a lottery system I'm sure a work around will be used at some point. It might not be the first time but I bet it would happen the second time. Well I guess they could have pre orders open for a number of weeks plus limit it to two of each item per account and this way people who want the pre order can get it and hopefully hurt scalpers at least a little.
I'll be honest outside of Wal Mart not including pictures with the listing at first I didn't think the pre order was that bad. I had time to buy each item and actually placed two orders which included debating whether or not to even place the second order. I don't know how long the non Joe pre orders lasted but I was kinda surprised how long the Joe items where available. But I can also see people not being able to get a chance because of work or some other situation that was more important and wanting the pre orders open for a set amount of time.
I think I might be ok if you could pay these companies say $10-20 a year for early and guaranteed access to pre orders. Like say Hasbro would have a site that would put the store links up a day or two early and this way exclusives are still exclusives but also help collectors.
