Is it possible to pre-order books like the next Harry Potter book through SP, if you wanted to pre-order it, but also wanted to give SP some credit for it?
I'm going to pre-order it anyways, 'cus I will want to get it on English (Really don't wanna wait those months before it's published in my native language).
(That is if it's possible to pre-order anything via amazon.com at all!)

Sure, pre-orders work the same as regular orders, only SP doesn't get any credit until the item actually ships. But I'm not sure what you mean by pre-ordering the next HP book... The next one's going to be out in what, 3 or 4 years? Or do you mean Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince? This has been out in English for a few days now. You can order it from http://www.sorcerers.net/Books/index_rowling.php
(I've fixed the links now, bloody Amazon invalidated the links which worked when I checked last, and no one reported them not working.)
:doh:
Btw, since you're in Denmark, rather order from Amazon.co.uk, shipping should be much less than from the US.

okay :)
Well, HP was meant more as an example than anything else. Guess I really didn't make that any clear at all (Pre-order Half-Blood Prince eons ago :p ).
Just meant in general since most of the good fantasy novels comes out in English quite some time before a Danish translation is made (if one is made at all!). It's just that I'm often pre-ordering books through various book clubs and such that I thought I might just as well do it via SP.

Definitely an idea I salute. :D
I usually add new books to our fantasy books store well in advance, so you can pre-order pretty much every title. But if I miss anything, or add it with a delay (or you want to order a book that isn't listed on SP), you can just follow the sticky in this forum for details ( http://www.sorcerers.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?/topic/18/666.html ), or just ask me to make links for you.
