What is a backorder? Will I be charged more?
A backorder means that we will order more of this item and ship it to you as soon as we can get it. A backorder won’t increase your shipping cost, even though there may be multiple shipments. Backordered books are not charged to your credit card until time of shipment. We do not charge your card in advance of shipment. Our normal policy is to backorder automatically all items not in stock at the time of your order. If you do not want a given item backordered, please indicate this on your order. If you must have an item by a certain date, please specify that date after the title.
