after usually.

Answer 11

If you're talking about pre-ordering from Barnes and Noble, you pay after, just to make sure that the book came in a good condition.

Sometimes you pre-pay it too.

Answer 12

Yes I do, it just depends on where you get it from. If it is a local store some might want a small deposit up front, to hold you a copy, then you pay the balance when you pick the book up after it is in stock. If it is online a lot of places don't charge you until the item is released and shipped.
