I have successfully gained refunds from Paypal on a number of occasions for ordinary auctions that went wrong when the item did not turn up.
The problem with a pre-order payment is that there is usually no clear date for the artist/publisher to provide you with a copy. Sometimes pre-orders seem to be used by an artist to raise funds to print their deck. I would suggest that this is an erroneous strategy, as people without sufficient funds to print their deck, may be tempted to use the advance payments on their ongoing living expenses, and then later be unable to print the deck, as they will have exhausted the small number of collectors willing to make advance payments.
After the recent problems with pre-orders it might be a good idea for collectors not to respond to such requests or else get a clear contract of obligation to supply.
