When you say buying-selling preorders do you mean, eg if someone else pre-ordered a mining rig you would be buying and selling that contract?  Like futures trading?

Suppose I need to buy/sell a preorder for Bitcoin mining equipment. What is the safest approach (for both the buyer and seller) to conduct this transaction?

Does it matter if this transaction is done over BTC vs Dollars?
