How pre-order alerts work
- 🟢 Pre-order open: you can pre-order now. Members with the 🟣 Preorder Alerts role are pinged.
- 🛒 Pre-order listed: the pre-order page is up but sold out or not open yet. It’s posted without a ping, and you get the 🟢 alert the moment it opens.
- A pinned board in #preorders lists every pre-order we can see, open or sold out, and updates itself.
Tips
- Pre-order at RRP. A standard Elite Trainer Box is £49.99. See the UK RRP guide.
- Check the release date on the listing. Some products in a set come out weeks after the main release.
