I just went to preorder the new expansion. Now with older expansions you didn't get billed until the day before it was released, but the website text suggests different: Thank You!

Check your credit card. I also just ordered the CE of AoD and the only thing on my card was a 1.00 charge from SoE. Usually thats just to verify the card is legit. I expect to get charged on shipping/Live day.
I just checked my email and I won't be charged until the release date. This is the same as previous preorders.
