Argos pre order, When do they take the money, on order or dispatch?

I think it'll be dispatch as if they take the money before hand and something happens, order get withdrawn or whatever its more hassle for them. I was wondering this with amazon and after research i found they take funds on dispatch so imagine their all the same

Its on order. I pre ordered payday 2 from them and they took the money straight away. They cancelled without telling me and it took ages to get the money back.

Soon as you order, just ordered a game.

Online it's immediate but instore is different, depending on what you want, example:

PS4 is £20 deposit over the counter instore but online it's full payment.

Thanks guys!!!!

Ordered Hogwarts Legacy and was charged straight away.
