preordering
Buying before release
Preordering is placing an order for something before it becomes available—a book, video game, or product not yet released: I preordered the new album so it arrives on release day.
Retailers use preorders to gauge demand and guarantee early sales.
The noun preorder refers to such an advance purchase.
