Because the small print when you do the pre-order says they reserve the right to increase the price and charge you the difference at the time of delivery or choose to cancel the pre-order - it's a contractual term, unlike your internal process of raising a PO at work which is just an accounting procedure

Honest question cause i do notg know but is the PO to the supplier not a type of contract? ie we agree to buy x amount of units, you agree to charge us x amount?

Couple of 5080's in MM but no one seems to want them

Eh? It sold out in 10 minutes and at asking too

Do resellers even have Po's at the point of preorder? No clue

Yes but the small print of the contract with the other competitor reserves the right to increase the price.

When you raise a PO at work it is an accounting procedure for your accounts dept to set aside in the books that amount your company will be spending at some point in the future against the item you are ordering and most likely than not the price will be agreed/set in stone.

The email I got from them states 'Payment has been authorised and we accept the contract between us is now unconditional'.

They 'The Seller' have agreed to provide me 'The Buyer', goods at an agreed price which has been fulfilled by me as funds have now left my account. Now I'm not versed in legal waffle but that all sounds binding to me and I'll argue it.
