I want to accept pre-orders for an item that will ship in 2-3 months.  I see that there are separate apps for pre-orders but they're pretty expensive.  Can't I just use the existing base Shopify features to sell an item and just not ship it until ready?  I haven't sold anything on Shopify yet so I don't understand what would stop me from doing this.  Let me know.  Thanks!

Hi @iltl32 

 

This require custom coding. Unfortunately, you need to hire a developer to do so

Why?  Which part is not possible?  Listing something, shipping it later, which piece?
