Either way, whether it was attached to just Legends, or it’s a more global application, this is an interesting wrinkle to pre-ordering and might change whether I continue to use BBTS. Feels sketchy...

Whatd you po? I know if its an expensive item they sometime require a non-refundable down payment. Hope this doesnt apply to all their po stuff. If it is i just wont po from em.
