Which uk blu-ray sellers charge your card when you order?

Hi all I am looking to pre-order a bunch of uk blu-rays and I want my
card to be charged immediately rather than when the discs are in stock.
Could someone please tell me which companies do this.

Many thanks

IIRC, no mail order company should take money from your card until the goods are in the post.

Companies that use Sec-Pay usually charge you straight away, even for pre-orders. CD-WOW are one of these but I would avoid them because their prices are ridiculous and customer service is quite poor, IMO. They are a Mickey Mouse outfit.

Why would you want to be charged straight away?

You can buy gift certificates from amazon and just use those to pay for the orders. If you choose an email certificate they email you the code really quickly.

Play.com also offer the same service, as do HMV.
